Carlsbad lagoon

[easyday]

I dont see how its legal to charge for the use of a public waterway. Im not going to buy a pass on top of my fishing license to use the ocean.

The cost of the passive use permit for the Carlsbad lagoons is $31.00 per year. If you use more than one kayak, you don't have to attach it, you can just carry it with you. It gives you access to both the recreation(water sking and jet skis) lagoon as well as the YMCA(middle lagoon).

Maybe it's kind of like paying to use a toll road that was built and paid for already using public money? It sucks but it's either pay now or pay the ticket later if you get caught. I think there was a thread on this a few months back.
