Default Opening Day Skunkathon

Hit the traditional opening day spots on the Ramapo with my old time buddies. 6 hours and not a swipe. Water was high, fast, slightly stained and frigid. Refusing to give up I hit the Rockaway on the way home which just added to the misery. Spoke to a couple of guys and they were reporting no luck as well so I don't feel so bad.

I finally got sick of looking at all the trash surrounding my favorite spot on the Rockaway and came home with a bed full of garbage. What is wrong with people?

Thanks guys for inspiring to finally do something about it!

Very impressive!! Sucks that some people aren't bothered by sitting in trash, and it won't get picked up unless a non-Douchebag does it.
Great work Squatch, and thank you!

Thumbs up Re: Opening Day Skunkathon

I saw some one trying to arrange a clean up on the Rockaway and it seemed to have fallen by the way side. Don't give up, there must be a Watershed group attached to that area, even try giving the local TU chapter a shout out.
Got the skunk, but filled the truck

This is the first time I can remember I got completely skunked opening day, 5 hours, 1 hit and it got off, I do have some mean wind burn to show for my troubles though

I would have done same today at my fav stream but left my bags home , do it tomorrow I'm sure it will be there!
It's amazing how once some pig dumps other pigs contribute to same site ! Hopefully keeping it clean will make them look elsewhere !
