On a whole it is discouraging. I know of a few spots that have been tarnished by substinance fishermen, from bait boxes, rotten bait on the rocks, and garbage strewn about (even though there is a trash can no more than 20 ft away) to a few dozen lengths of twine left in water with peices of chicken tied on the ends. When they arent splashing around in the water 2 feet away from where you are fishing, the crap they left attracts every rat and skunk within a square mile.

As for RI fishing access, if I didnt know better. I'd say the state was trying to screw us with the proposed saltwater license and the ever shrinking lack of access to the water. I wonder what to do, consider it is technically protected under Article 1, Section 17.
