Well I consider myself "burnt".
But if I may "I'd like to claim my seat" as they say in AA.
I've been fishing Boston Harbor as far back as I can remember. I was born in 1958 and my father (glazier\glassworker) always had a boat - even during hard times. He was a member of the Bunker Hill Yaught Club until it was burnt down by Townies after they shot our boats full of holes. He spent the last of his days @ the Winter Hill Yaught Club & had a boat till the day he died.
I've worked on lobster boats (puken into chum in the sun) & have had seen strings lost from bouys cut by others.
I've worked party boats clearing snags & baiting for others.
I've pushed many hooks trough so I could cut the barb.
I've been roughed up on Castle Island & the 107 causeway in Lynn because I was standing in a locals spot.
And when I finally came to this site I tought "wow here I can learn & maybe help others"
I can tell you that there are some great spots off of Nahant and not worry about "Burning" it because it is all about knowledge & experiance. (plus no on street parking)
If I ever meet you fishing and you ask advise I will tell you the truth. It doesn't mean you will catch any more fish & it will not make you a fisherman. But maybe it will keep you from drowning.
So If you look at an arial view does that "burn" anything or expand horizons ?
I'm sure you will always find some local that will say it is his sand & bust you in the chops. But I don't expect it here.
