Is it true that you now have to pay to launch there? If so what's the $$ amount

There are usually people there on the weekends and holidays collecting $2. They are not there early. I can't remember what it was for. They used to charge the folks using the beach/pier but have recently moved back up the road before the turn in for the boat ramp. It has caused a few issues and been a bit of an annoyance. I'm sure it is to clean up the beaches or something like that so I have no issue with the $$$. I would prefer they tack $20 on my property taxes and not cause a traffic jam at the boat ramp when someone pulling a 1978 pontoon boat argues with the folks for five minutes and then gets $2 in change out of the ash tray to pay thus backing up boats 500 yards. I got to sit behind that last week! No offense if anyone has a 1978 pontoon boat.

$5 to launch on weekends

Another argument for wadefishing.

As I understand it, they'll be charging for beach access too. So wadefishing there won't be free either

They'll hafta catch me to charge me. If they are willing to follow me through the creeks that empty into the surf...go for it!
