Sometimes there are so many of them in that spot you can't even float passed. Heard the cops came down on them pretty hard a couple weeks ago. That's probably why the cement slabs are there. But it obviously didn't work lol. The amount of garbage that gets left behind there is sickening. From dirty diapers to endless amounts of beer bottles and food wrappers. It's a shame

What can you do?
American companies want to compete with third-world labor, so they imported the third-world here.

The parties wouldn't be that much of an issue if they would just pick up their own garbage, instead of spitefully dumping all their trash where they're standing.

(A seasonal park employee told me that if Corona ever made a biodegradable bottle, he would be out of a job! :D )

ugh... sad that's happening where i grew up.
the swimmers and concrete blocks remind me of a north jersey reservoir a few years back. hopefully the local PDs will find a way to get down there and do some enforcement of the litter laws at least.

Just the idea of wading in that water without hip boots grosses me out.

I did it for about 15 years growing up. I now seem to be immune to most common sicknesses. :D

Is that the Rio Grande?

Unfortunately I came to this realization when I saw a bunch of these guys with a stringer of stuff from the Passaic river. As dirty as some water here may or may not be, it's probably drinking water wherever they're from

Pollution sucks!! Especially 4 us fisherman! Being a racist chump is just as bad though. The fact that they were "imported" here or not, has no relevance to their biological etiquette, or lack thereof. So color, ethnicity, religion, etc., doesn't make someone dirty or ugly, but polluting anything with no cares....or being racist, definitly will. So please, lets clean up or shut up!! Sorry 4 redirection of thread Andy. Fellaz, if it don't apply, let it fly. Get swole if u want!! You can fish...@ my spot!!!!;);)
