When I get these piles up on the bank they smell just awful ! I'm tripping over all kind of submerged logs and stuff, plenty of SMB habitat. If I didn't think this was an improvement I wouldn't do it, they seem to be creating a mud bottom as opposed to nice free flowing rock bottom.

My drinking water is collected from this river also.

Re: Raritan river 7/3/16:
 

You're the man Andy!!! Dunno how you do it!? My buddies can't last just casting all day, let alone doing actual work.

Think we all owe Andy a beer!!!:D:D

Re: Raritan river 7/3/16:
 

we owe him a lot more than a beer. I'd love to see all of the trash and tires this guy has pulled out of the river in one place. Probably would fill a stadium.

Re: Raritan river 7/3/16:
 

Perhaps a few bottles of Fat Tire for Andy? :D

Re: Raritan river 7/3/16:
 

Andy doesn't drink beer... He drinks the souls of littering scum bags!

Re: Raritan river 7/3/16:
 

I guess you were just above the Headgates by a hundred feet or so? Doesn't it drop right off to about eight feet on up? I feel I owe you better than photos yet, Andy. Yeah, I got out there and the canoe I manned hauled a lot of tire, but you and I both know I sort of approached the day all too tentatively, but I guess you get your feet wet first and then dive under. Or guys that have to look around first do. And I can't tell you how much stretches of river with people makiing them more beautiful yet beckons a photographer's eye! And a writer's report. One thing for sure. Next time I'm either wearing swim shorts or free ballin', because anyone who does this right--I sure have observed--needs to get thoroughly soaked. And I'm relieved my left arm's tendonitus is finally getting better. Didn't tell anyone about that, because I just needed to make do anyway...and a lot more doing it is, than I really did. I'll try again
