State blocked trails to beaches

[Ray]

And put up signs saying no unauthorized vehicles on the beach.
Signs start at the West end of Holly Beach and go to Lil Fla.
Didn't go any farther than that.
They also dumped a bunch of what looked like old storm debris from the beach into the trails going to the beaches.

Notice the new sign behind the debris.

Soon they won't let people fish off the bank at all.then they will stop fishing all together. Pissed

[Jordan]

Now there will be more idiots ok the water

Ray.....is that seaweed dried out?

Anyone got a match.

[Ray]

It is mostly dirt with seaweed mixed in.

I did see one trail still open farther East.

The signs are at Lil Fla. also.

Just wondering.......can people still drive on the beach at Holly beach where the camps are located?

I believe they can but you can't tell with all of the goofy signs. One says no ATV's beyond this point but there are cars and trucks beyond the sign.
The place in the pic has a sign stating no motorized vehicles past sign but when GOTTOGO and I fished it, there was a guy in a Jeep drive past it and park on beach to fish. Probably a matter of time before they close the entire beach to traffic like Fourchon.

Coastal erosion and a ton of self created problems.

Last time out I saw a campsite with 4 adults......trash was EVERYWHERE!!!!! we picked some up around my truck, they trot the hint and started cleaning their mess........sad

[Garfish]

All the trash and the idiots in 4 wd's is why they closed the beach in Fourchon. I hated to see people leave all the trash when they left their campsite. It looks like another case of that in Holly Beach. It's a hot topic in some areas of Texas, too. I want to be able to keep my beach access so I can let my kids experience what I was able to. It's a shame how people treat the outdoors. No respect at all.

There is plenty of parking along Hwy 82. On both sides of the road.

You can still drive on Holly Beach.

[BArmand]

We saw those signs a few weeks ago and parked our vehicles right there, but several others drove through. There was a huge turtle by the sign closer to Holly Beach. I can't figure out why only parts of the beach is closed.

Biologist have been on the beach everytime I have been down this summer, One HOT and One Not. They are doing sometype of study and I bet this is the reason access has been blocked.

[Jordan]

BP oil. Nuff said

[Duck Butter]

they are planting grasses along the beach in that area, they started Thursday and will end today. Not sure if that is the same area

Access was still pretty easy the other day when I went with Mr. Paul. You just had to get over the sand barriers. Had we had a chest full of fish, it may have been a little different story. Still worth the ride though, IMO.
