DO NOT TAMPER WITH NET MARKINGS. It is against the law and puts others at risk!! This includes intentionally or unintentionally cutting, moving, or damaging buoys while trying to recover tangled gear. Please steer clear of the nets to avoid tangles. If you do get tangled, cut your lines and do not disturb the markers. Missing markers put other boaters at risk. Those witnessing net tampering or nets with missing markers should report their observations to the RAP Hotline (800-292-7800). Warning: All boaters must remain on the lookout for nets and other hazards while on the water. It must be noted that new nets are set and others relocated prior to the coordinates being forwarded to us to be posted. This information should not be used for navigation but rather as a general reference of reported locations.
