Thanks for the perspectives, guys. Clamchucker is right on the $$. Carelessness and littering will close more and more areas, and has recently been part of the reason for closures to bridge fishing of a few popular ones. This is happening every day, and it's up to us to speak up against those who don't have a clue. Thanks for posting, Fin.

And it was good to see Joe get some press. He's almost single-handedly responsible for the construction of the 8th Ave jetty.

Joe, along with Finchaser, Surfwalker, and others, is one of the activists out there that every fishermaen should get a chance to shake their hand in thanks.
