Mecklenburg County Boat Launch Access

If you do much boating in Mecklenburg county, you are probably aware that many of the launches are located within county parks. Many of the parks are closed to entry from sunset to sunrise. While this suits most recreational boaters just fine, night fisherman and waterfowl hunters are effectively closed out from the launches when they most need them.

I have recently had the opportunity to speak with the Park Superintendent of Operations many times (unrelated Parks and Rec debacle in my neighborhood). I mentioned the lack of access for sportsmen during hours of darkness. He responded that nobody ever contacts his office to complain so it's not an issue. So if you believe that this is an issue and wish to complain, you may contact Greg Clemmer at: Gregory.Clemmer@mecklenburgcountync.gov or (980) 314-1000.

i would speculate that waterfowl hunters are the least of a mecklenburg park superintendent's concerns.

in fact if they allow firearms in a meck park that would be a surprise.

but you are right, those hours are useless for night anglers and hunters.
