I was down that way Sunday AM, and saw many, many guys on the Wall....but I saw that from a distance and did not travel down by the entrance and parking area.

Someone just told me that dirt road will be gated with a card system for residents.

It's not a spot I fish except for early season schoolies, but it is another spot that "Bites The Dust"...unless you want to hike it from the East Matunuck parking lot. Bummer.....

Is it a car gate that you can walk around or is it Berlin like?

I have not been down there but I hear this too. Expect more of the same , especially if CRMC rolls over and starts playing dead...

If they try to block off access wouldnt a 100 man march be in order. Set up a date and time, everyone walks out with a rod and a trash bag. We need to think of a revolutionary slogan to march by. any suggestions?

Everything is better on the rocks.

i stopped going there. Last time I went, a family was dumping garbage in the water half way out, plastic wrappers, coke cans, empty chip bags... my friend alerted me, I turned in time to see 2 of them throwing cans in the ocean. I started screaming at them, loudly, and pointing, so everyone on that wall turned and saw them doing it. Only then did they understand what they were doing was wrong, then scrambled to pick up whatever was still within reach. Had to swim my plugs between floating garbage on a beautiful warm fall day. These folks didnt speak english, for the record. But its not limited to just immigrants, plenty of white trash doing the same thing too.

Picket fence is now up on property abutting the entrance, adjacent to where the gate is going. Didn't see any razor wire, yet.
