Boating Springfield Lake

[jfeola]

Curious is anyone knows of the specifics regarding horse power and the boundaries of Springfield Lake.

My plan is to put in at the ramp just above the lake (near the RR bridge) but was wondering if there is a limit on horsepower that far up, or even anywhere on the river part. In fact, where does the lake end and the river begin if there are different restrictions?

I've seen guys using 90 HP jet drive motors below the dam in the river. Is that legal as well.

Thanks guys.

There is a 6 hp limit on the lake. I don't know for sure where the cut off is for the restriction above the lake.

As far as the dam, that boat must have put in somewhere down river and the water must have been high to get a boat that big below the dam.
