We did try putting out garbage cans and all that happened was people just threw their trash on the ground.
Unfortunately, things like this are going to happen there, here & just about anywhere. Doesn't matter if its fishing, park area, camp ground etc. Like i said, grove area, the citizen got involved & waste management keeps the area neat and clean now. The cops now do a routine pass by to ensure that people are just going to fish and nothing more.
I did not pay any attention as to it being an old post and it seems it made no difference as I got your attention.
And I got your attention as well. It was a question and just wanted to hear your take. Many troll our site so I was making sure I could weed them out and to see if it was legit.
In response you people pile on and not once take responsibility of the problem.
“You people” I cant take responsibility of a place I have never fished before and have no interest in going. This is not a blog but a forum but understand what you are saying. We only can do so much over here.As you can see how many hits and replies it got, its not popular place on this forum, so that's .00001% of folks from this fishing forum that might go there and fish or have moved on and dont care. Maybe if you were asking for help then it would have been met with a better response as well. If you look at the replies before you posted, There is no disrespect from the OP as he wrote this

I still have a few other spots to fish it from. But if you can find a legal place to park you should be fine. all they seemed to be concerned with is people parking there.

So now you imply that I've made it worst by pointing out that your trespassing and the implied threat that came with that.
The way you conducted yourself made it worse doesn't matter if others members were coming hard on you. Your replies made it worse since you wanted to sling with others as well so dont cry wolf here on this now. Mr. PP posted information and a map. Is that area he posted still trespassing? This is a fishing forum and if Mr. PP posted an area that you can fish as alternative to keep others away from your area- How is that not being helpful?
If the problem gets worse, they feel they will have to enforce more forcefully. So far they have just asked people to leave, but I assure you they can do much more.
Enforce more forcefully….Please enlighten me on what this might be since you posted this information. Dont sugar coat it either-
Not everyone who parks there is fishing. Should I we tolerate drug dealing, or other crimes? How do we know who is here just to fish and never does anything wrong? i really don't have a problem if someone walks in and fish off the shore, but how do I separate them from the others.
You posted information on a fishing site about the no trespassing so it has nothing to do with drugs dealing or other crimes. For all I know someone from your neighborhood is buying from them. I mean they cant all be angles in there. I don't separate, i don't sit by my window or porch wondering if everyone walking by my home is going to break into my home, sell drugs, etc. I'm alert, im just not paranoid.
In the end you have many others issues about a problem and not some much the issues at hand about fishing. The way you are painting it, it seems there is plenty of crime activity in your neighborhood. In the end, you are not the best ambassador representing the issues at hand in a fishing forum.
