Chris,
Access to the Cliff Walk would not be denied. Just parking on certain streets - which for all practical purposes may deny access. Enterprising anglers will still hoof-it in from other parking locations. By the way I agree that "trashy fishermen" are not all out of towners.
This is a tough issue. Parking, fishing ethics, and access to the shore are the most important issue's facing surf casters today. Issue's that we must resolve if surf casting an open shore is to remain a viable past time in the future. I urge all anglers to carry plastic bags and pick up refuse where ever you fish whether it is yours or not. The general public see a mess in a fishing area and think we're all slobs. We have to change that image. I hate to pick up someone else's trash but WE BETTER DO IT! Those who don't - START.
