Madd Matt,
Thanks for the clarity. Seems to me that State Ramps are not under County jurisdiction. Law question at best. Wonder what would happen if you launch at state ramp defying local police? I would ask in court for a jury trial, lots of conflicting, local, state, national dialog. Boy as Juls mentioned, it’s maddening!
LOL, thanks for your informative reply, much appreciated.Lund 1875 Sport Tyee

I was told that the officers told people that they couldn't physically stop them from launching and going fishing... They just told them that they couldn't promise that their truck and trailer would be there when they got back.
Of course they didn't say that they would tow it... but as far as I know nobody tested them. I have not talked to anyone that was there nor heard of anyone that actually got threatened with arrest or fine. They were more just telling them that they weren't supposed to be there and needed to return home, and everyone complied.
Everyone in local law enforcement has been more than reasonable and courteous. They have been very non-confrontational and approach everything from educating people on social distancing and current orders.
I personally do believe that there are too many legal grey areas and also most of these guys are local and know that the entire economy in Port Clinton and Ottawa County relies heavily on Lake Erie activities and out of State people.
