Moose, as usual, you are right on the money
That's why we have started participating in stream clean ups and took the stream monitoring class in our area last year. We're looking forward to doing more of the same this year.
Anyone can organize a group clean up and it's actually a bit of fun if that's what you went there for in the first place - as opposed to Hoot's fishing trip being turned into a clean up trip.
We always try to pick up discarded fishing line and other debris when we go out. I don't want anyone thinking that WE left the trash. - Roberta
