Oneshot, I once had that problem off the Rappahanock river here in Virginia. I found a small tributary off the river that flowed into some swaps....the place was absolutely loaded with big largemouth bass. The "land" owner would yell at me and threaten to call the cops everytime I went down to fish. After awhile it worked because the harassment made it no fun. But that dang place was loaded with big fish!
There is actually a marina here that will not let people fish becaue they claim they dug it out and made it navigable. We still fish it and have the game warden check us while they want you to get out, all at the same time. I just dont get people who complain when they dig their ponds out of a creek and complain when someone fishes it, all they did was make it possible for us to fish it legally.
If only they knew they couldve spent money and stocked the pond and had it all to themselves, but oh well it works out for me
