Posts: 1144 Location: Minnesota. | FYI, on at least one northern metro lake, Rush, there is a "no wake" rule until the water levels drop below the high-water level for a min. of 3 days. It's posted at the boat ramps. This from the Sheriff's Dept. in case no one was aware. | ||

Posts: 2 | The Sheriffs Water Patrol has been writing citations for this also. So be careful out there. From their facebook page The following lakes have a No Wake zone: East Rush Lake, West Rush Lake, Goose Lake, Robour Lake, and Mandall Lake. The 'slow no wake zone' is 300 feet from shore and means that the operation of a watercraft at the slowest possible speed necessary to maintain steerage, and no greater than 5 mph. The no wake zone is to help minimize damage to shorelines and islands due to high water levels. | ||

Some may argue that this is only for visitors and not those with homes on the lake and that waterskiing is excluded from this rule. I think we saw at least 6 boats cruisin around the other night haha | ||

I questioned the rule (gently) as it seemed odd. Waves don't stop coming after 100 yds. He said "dems da rules!" | ||
