I feel your PAIN and can relate to every word,I have lived in DADE county all my life and seen it go from bad to just plain rediculous,there was a time you could fish and spend time with your shorebound family having a nice time and not be botherd by our city or counties finest.

I tryed to fish under the first bridge on Rickenbacker after the toll on 3/17/11,METRO DADE advised me that I couldnt fish there,I asked where the sign was,because on my way down the walk way hadnt seen any,she got mad and took my I.D,I wasnt worried I did nothing wrong,but she had the badge and ticket book so I was not going to get on her bad side,Ive learned the hard way,you are better off coperating when asked to do so,Its not worth it to get a citation,if you can avoid it.YES SIR-YES MAAM will usualy do the trick,I kow its hard but the alternative SUCKS!!!!!!!!!Keep fishing and trying new spots,if asked to leave do so,eventualy you will find one and nobody will bother you,it may not be easy.TIGHT LINES!!!!!
