Unless the game is actually in the water hard and likely to stay there if shot this is a different issue. The landowner owns the land and crossing outside of a public access to the water is tresspassing. This also has always been illegal in the US just as a landowner blocking public from public waterways has always been illegal. But if hunters tried to have their state pass laws letting them hunt on private land it would be basically doing the same sort of thing that landowners are doing now. Both would ignore laws and precedents of the U.S. that have been continually in effect since colonial times. In my mind they both would be illegal seizures in the U.S. This was an important issue with colonalist and forming the U.S. because they didn't like how Europian Monarchies controlled access for transportation and fishing of the waterways. Maybe you elitist who don't like or understand our American traditions can get adopted into an Europian Monarchy.
