The West River beneath the Kimberly Avenue bridge in West Haven has long been a fishing spot for shore fisherman. Both banks on this river look like a dump. Plastic bottles, discarded fishing line and many other forms of trash litter this area and it is all attributable to these shore fisherman. They are also abusive, they cast in to the navigable channel, which is thin at low water,and harangue the boaters who come near their lines. There have been cases where these folks have thrown objects at the 'offending' boats. I have been privy to and complained about this situation before and it seems to be getting worse. As soon as I can I will post some pics.
