The law may say that but do you really have to anchor off someone's dock? There are plenty of places around the lake where you can exercise your right.
We don't get many people anchoring off our property and if they do its usually just to jump in to cool off for a few minutes. The last time it happened one of the people on the boat knelt on the transom and wizzed into the lake. I should have gotten the bow number and called the Marine Patrol. So please understand and appreciate a property owner's perspective.
The next time you decide to anchor have some consideration and find a spot where you are away from someone's property. They don't need to see you and you don't need to see them.
