Agreed be careful. It is quite possible the nice old guy's heirs will sell the property upon his passing and the new owners will have never known the nice old guy. The new owners may have a very different view of things and unlike him they may love to fish. I would avoid a shared lake situation at almost any cost and/or change of plans.

Fishing has never been about the fish....
