In Cape Coral, people who live near bridges say they no longer want strangers to walk through their property to get to a bridge to fish.
The city is trying to find a balance between letting people cast their net without casting their trash.
Maureen Jackson sees people cast their lines all the time from the bridge near her home.
“I’ve seen a lot of fishing on the other side of the bridge from us,” Jackson said.
She said she doesn’t mind most of the time.
