No Trespassing....
Just finished reading an article by Henry Cowen in the latest issue of Fly Fishing in Salt Waters titled, "Forbidden Waters". In this article he tells stories about places he's fished that were posted as off limits or no trespassing. The article isn't intended to point out specific places but does in some cases. I like the authors writing style and the stories he tells.
I found it nostalgic when I think about all of the places I've "snuck" into to fish over the course of my life. When I was a teenager, I snuck into and fished in ponds in a neighborhood cemetary and a couple of golf courses, parks and on a few private ponds. Not many trout involved but I molested a whole bunch of warm water fish. One of my favorite places to fish off was the breakwater at King Harbor in Redondo Beach when it was being constructed (the wire fence across it wasn't installed yet). My buddies and I would hike out to the first bend and start fishing there using artificial flies/lures. It was always good for Bonita and the occasional Barracuda or Yellowtail where the Edison outfall bubbled up.
Good times....
