I hate to pay the fee's but unfortunately we can't do anything about it.
I like to fish Geist so I spend my $450 to $600 a season to fish there. Not that I'm happy about doing it.
Sad thing is the parking lot is always full so they just keep raising the rates. By the way it's $15 and $30.
Otherwise I drive a little further and fish a state reservoir that still collects now $22 a year. I'm sure before I retire from fishing them lakes to will be extremely expensive to launch as well.
I guess as long as they have someone willing to pay these fee's they will keep charging.... I for one can not live with out fishing so until I'm broke I guess I will continue to pay...
