I wonder how much of that money will go to the park......you know,like the admission fee for the piers going towards keeping it up.
My problem isn't really having a fee.....it's that the money usually goes else where.

It's a shame.
When I moved to Ft. Myers from Ohio we had a great fishing spot on some backwater that led into San Carlos Bay. I could usually get flounder, snapper, and big mullet. Since then, they added a $1/hour parking fee which has really hurt the area. States are going bankrupt and looking at alternative means to fund the budget. Get an income tax in Florida and the state won't have nearly as many problems.
My opinion of the article..... completely ridiculous.

Bad enough people are paying to send my kid to pulic school. If you use the servie you pay. I would have no problem paying my fiar share to send my kid to school as long as i did not have to pay when they finished school. I do agree the money should stay in the park and pay for improvements. If at the end of the year there is a surplus.... have a party for the folks who come. I do pay to go to Honeymoon island and with my annual pass for $140.00 if entitles me to fish the park after hours. The park evens gives you the combination to the lock. I think it is a great idea. Maybe thye will do the same at fred howard.
