In most circumstance you can indeed anchor is shallow water and swim all you want at a beach. However if it is a no rafting zone then you can't anchor within 150' of the shore. And if the property owner gets a permit for swim lines then you can't anchor there at all.
Just the fact that a property owner CAN get a swim line permit proves that he has more rights to that little part of the lake than the general public does.
