                    Looks to me like there are two times posted for 2 different things.

                    Time you can begin fishing: "Fishing hours will begin at 6:57 a.m."
                    When you can leave the dock: "You may not leave a “no-wake zone” and/or launch until 6:27 AM"

                      I had left a 3rd time accidentally from last year and some guys caught. I changed it quickly. Correct time to leave the no wake zone is 6:27 AM. That gives you 30 minutes to get to your fishing spot and setup. Lines in the water at 6:57 AM.
