So after the last post about the preserve & call to 1-877-WARNDEP, I am pretty sure a few calls & emails from Andy, and any other complaints that were received about the ridiculous amounts of trash & pollution...some results to boot. Not sure who is responsible for the work itself, but here's a few picks and a thanks to whoever did it.

The bums are gone from under the bridge as well.:eek::D And besides some scattered smaller crap, and whatever amount of trash & recycling stuff that was already hauled out, here's about a 40-50ft long pile of stuff waiting to be carted away as well hopefully.

I know it was mentioned in a recent thread that it can & might disrupt the fish presence after debris is removed from the banks of certain places, but the the garbage & miscellaneous objects that you would have to walk around or through, or sit in while waiting for a bite, is invasive itself to the water...& the fish didn't put it there. Every little effort can go a long way.

thank god that some people care enough to clean up a bit.removing litter does not hurt the fishing or habitat,downed trees are good as long as they don't cause flooding issues,those toothy critters are proof of that nice fish indeed esox keep up the good work.:cool:

How do you hang out in all that poison ivy and not have any reactions?

Looks good. Let's just hope it holds up to a big storm and all that floating debris, would hate to see it end up right back where it was.

Wash with Tecnu when you get home.
