Not misinformation
DEC Campgrounds
Holders of Recreation Fishing licences may enter a park at no charge if they are entering for the purpose of their licence - licence to be shown on request.
Bit misleading in that there is no requirement to have a boat license to shore-fish, but there it is. Might want to argue the toss with them over the requirement to even have a license before the date. Maybe just argue that you're appropriately-licensed to rec fish.

I don't see why you would
I don't see why you would need a license even, specially when you're talking about beachcasting.
You just need a fishing rod and to either be using it, heading towards a fishing spot, or heading away from one.

To get in for free you need
To get in for free you need to be intending to fish, fishing, or coming back from a fish.
Having a fishing gear demonstrates this better than a boat fishing license.
