The worst offenders are the locals fishing on the cliffs. I always see bottles, fishing line, bait containers, cigarette butts, etc...etc... really an eye sore for anyone wanting to enjoy the ocean. It would be nice if we could take pictures of the people doing these acts to get them a ticket.
I also think fishing line should be taxed 5-10 time the cost so that people don't just leave it everywhere, and can pay for beach clean up's. Kinda like a bottle return. If you pickup all your broken line and bring it back you can get some of your money back.
Just a few thoughts of my own. Has anyone ever reported a car dumping out the window? If you call up the police and give them a description of the car, plate # and person driving... Will anything come of it? Is it even worth the effort?
It really irks me to pick up after others, but... I will pickup trash at the beach. Makes me a feel a little better at least.
