Newport Access Denied

[chipwood]

First of all I've never seen a CRMC sign aywhere near this spot because it's someones property you must traverse to access the spot. So CRMC has nothing to do with it. These people have allowed fisherman to access for years.Sorry Soaker but it's not "my spot". It's a well known spot to locals but a certain population only discovered it in the last few years. And Soaker I never blamed McKenna. He can do whatever he wants over on the other side. All I know is that Narry attracts alot more fisherman these days. I blamed Charlie Soares. He's the one putting a spot that must be accessed through PRIVATE PROPERTY in a well known magazine. I'm sorry you don't advertise a spot in a magazine that you must trudge through PRIVATE PROPERTY. And the funny thing is Charlie Soares does'nt even go there. At least McKenna still fishes the spots he writes about. Soaker, maybe you just moved to the Island because it sure the hell sounds like you don't know where I'm talking about, because the spot has or should I say was overrun by scup fisherman who don't clean up after themselves. Okay maybe they stay after dark sometimes and catch bass and blues too. Whatever.

Nothing I hate more than the people that ruin it for others.

They'll bring an entire meal to a spot. And leave everything they brought. It is the same type of people that do it over and over. I can spot them from a mile away. Dirty, thoughtless, ignorant #**)&$*#'s. Anytime I see someone leave their junk behind in my fishing territory they get an earful, minimum. "spot vigilante"

That's the bottom line in this case.

Those who write or are in the public eye need to think before speaking or writing. Simple as that. There's many other spots across the state like this one that are accessable, but not technically Rights of Way. If they are named then the burner deserves any wrath that may come his way and then some.

In a case like Steve McKenna, since those are true public access spots (as far as I can remember) it's a different game. I've driven past one of his named spots MANY times in the past month at all hours and it was often completely vacant anyways.
