I talked to Consolidated about it and they said if you can carry it by hand to the water at Glendale, you can use it. So float tubes are fine. They also said the other lakes they own are open for fishing and the ramps don’t close. Hopefully Twin Lakes is the same as I’m likely buying a house in Clifton this summer.

Well, thats a lot different than we've been told in past so either they have changed or someone doesnt really know what they are requiring. There are signs on each of the ramps/reservoirs where you launch with information on them.  As for Twin, they actually put a chain n padlock across the ramps so you cant launch and they are pretty strict on nothing being on the water outside of their time frames.  Again, if things have changed, folks might want to post the actual regs because we've been through all of this with them before and they have stopped us from launching.

Here is the link to what is happening on Twin Lakes - http://twinlakescanalcompany.com/recreation.html

If you take note, Twin does charge a fee for non-motorized watercraft under 10 ft so your float tube does count. 

For those of you who have Facebook, here is the FB page for the Franklin County Reservoir Alliance.  They keep things pretty well up to date on what you can or cant do on the waters and when you can or cant launch.  Good luck. https://www.facebook.com/FranklinCountyR...irAlliance
