It's fishermen who screwed us out of these access points. No other user group is involved. And I 100% agree with green diamond closing Thier lands.
For years they kept gates open to access these launches. While they locked all other gates December 31st...we had the privilege of access. And a few took it for granted and ruined it for everyone....



Some fisherman surely do litter and parked on the road which caused issues, but the problems aren't entirely fisherman related.
I've seen many non anglers camping and partying at access areas, especially during the summer. They contribute to the problems / issues and access areas getting closed. They are deaf to the concept of leave no trace.
