this brought up a fear that I have been having, a spot that I like has been inhabited with quite a crew using a little rubber raft to access...they go in bunches with a couple of rods each and are not at all prepared equiptment-wise...they line the steep rocks overnight where it is open to the sea and often unpredictable as far as swell size, I've watched them there in some pretty big seas at times when I will, without question, avoid that area because it is just too big to fish safely....all this makes landing a fish there a very iffy proposition, particularly in sneakers and sweatshirts....I believe that it is just a matter of time and my two fears are that one of them gets hurt, the second is the potential of loss of access to the location due to liability concerns...but...what can you do? I've spoken to them a number of times and they seem oblivious to the risk....
