I guess I'm lucky in that the states I fish the most, Montana and Virginia, the access laws allow entry and movement up and downstream on navigable water as long as one stays below the high-water mark (although there are exceptions, like portions of the Jackson River in Central VA).
I saw that Utah just re-instated their angler-friendly laws, that had been taken away in 2010 http://www.deseretnews.com/article/8...aw.html?pg=all
What are the rules on your home waters?
