Anyone think Lakeview will ever open to the public again?

Can't make any accusations yet, but I will keep looking into it.

'm pretty sure the state stocked it with stripers about a year or less before it became private.

I was always told the boys that own Kalb equipment were the fellas that bought Lakeview, they are big money

Money has nothing to do with getting a ramp. It's all about the politics. Some well placed politicians are owners in it so nothing is going to happen. Kick, cry and scream all you want. Those guys have untold millions invested in that land.

i was told by a warden once that the state knew that the land was/was gonna be for sale and they could have moved on it before the sale but didnt.

they stocked it with crappie and stripers just before the flood

I always had good days on that lake. Caught a bunch of 1 1/2-2lb fish and a few that would go 3 right straight across from the boat ramp in that stump field.
