Well he can own to the middle of the river all he wants, but according the PTD, it is protected below the high water mark for pulic use, public or private owned.( Someone on other forum said he was going to put it to the test, have to watch and see)

Now access to the high water mark is the other issue, and the land lease owner can charge for that. But the west side is own by the WDFW for about 3 corners up.

So far this has been funny to watch play out.

I am sure the Sheriff has better things to do, then waste time and money dealing with this.
