They were chained and NOT locked last year.

I guess I will be investing in a bolt cutter later today! #laststraw

I've never fished these lakes by boat, but does the lake close after 10pm?

If not, what happens if you wanted to fish past 10pm? Are you stuck on your boat until they unlock the gates at 6am the next morning? Weird.

Bingo!!!!

What does the city suggest I do when Blake the AIS inspector is hung over from drinking cranberry vodkas all night with Jason Collins in Uptown and doesn't make it to the landing until 9 am?

Did that happen?

It's a what if scenario and given the proximity to Uptown can we really rule it out?

Last year when I asked one of the inspectors that they said to just put the chain up after I left. Maybe there'll be something similar this year. I hope
