Rob -

Thanks for compiling the list of lakes and their restrictions. I had to double check to confirm that your Pinto Lake is the place I remember as a little kid in the late 60s when we briefly lived in Watsonville.

One of the interesting things about your list is that the various restrictions are imposed by different organizations.
- Mussel related restrictions: Individual municipal water disctricts (especially in So-Cal) or in the case of Pinto Lake, the Watsonville City Council.
- Trout stocking restrictions: DFG lawsuit
- Access restrictions (both # of hours and boat launch): Due to lack of state/local finances?

I wish I had some words of wisdom but all I have is more questions.

Thanks for keeping everybody informed.

Tim
