Jim as long as you're fishing and not hanging out you can fish Brenton Point.

I do on occasion hear of someone who gets hassled by the police though. I've fished there plenty of times at night, and I've never had a problem with either the police or the EPO I occasionally see there.

Parking in the fishing permit areas without a permit is definitely a gamble; some nights you will get away with it, some times you'll get a ticket, and if they really don't like you they occasionally tow.

Pete,you're saying NO permit for parking at Brenton?

I have been hassled after dark more than once there.Both times I was told by a cop I needed a permit.I was just glad to get out without a ticket.

Why not just post the specific rules right at the park.Closed sunset to sunrise is a little vague.
