I haven't fished Deal in over 20years. Used to go down there quite a bit. Got hassled too much. People complaining about us being there all the time, hardly any parking, police around all the time, just wasn't worth it. I have no idea how it is today, but it seems to me the surrounding population dictates our access there, and they would rather us not be there. I got tired back then of constantly showing my driver's license, so I never went back. I never felt good about giving in, still bothers me today.

As far as people wandering into areas they shouldn't be, well, what are ya gonna do, some people just never learn.
