Default Lake laws

I really wish more folks would learn the laws pertaining to waterfront rights etc.. Twice so far this year we have been harassed by island folks who think that you must anchor/swim 150 feet from shore. First let me say that these were uninhabited stretches of shore front. Common courtesy would never let me anchor in front of any one's home.
The law states the high water mark is state property!
Its getting ridiculous how territorial people can be . Coming from the other side of an island , half a mile away to yell and scream 150 feet ..its wrong and RUDE ! From now on i will be standing my ground and ill let marine patrol and possibly the state police settle it.
