On a lake that I waterfowl hunt, there is an island nearby the mainland that, back in the early '70s and before, was connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of land and was platted as a privately owned peninsula. From the mid-70s to today, the forces of nature have eroded away the thin narrow strip of land and the used-to-be peninsula now sits 30 yards from shore as an island.
So my question is this....would this used-to-be peninsula, which is now an island, still be under private ownership of the original landowner, or is this now a public island???
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
