Yeah, I do think the state will eventually erect a fishing pier, but I don't think I'd run out to the garage tonite to start making yourself a bridge gaff.

You'd probably be better off fabricating a walker outta bar stock with a cooler rack on front, 'cause it's gonna take that long. We'll all be so old we'll be poopin' rust by the time they cut the ribbon on that sucker.

And I figure by the time it's done, you'll have to have your saltwater license pinned to your shirt at the gate and pay a fee for access, too.

	"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
