Whenever I walk the banks at Bush Wildlife Area I always end up with my pockets full of trash. It amazes me that people will get up and leave every bit of their trash sitting where they fished all day.

That is a great idea and usually we pick things up at ramps and especially in the water. A better idea my be trying to appeal to the litterbugs to stop dropping trash and save it until they are near a container. Probably never happen but worth a try. I have said something to folks I have seen tossing stuff on the parking lots. They usually get embarrassed.

I was gonna recommend something similar. People need to be called out on it, but we don't have to be dicks about it either. Usually just a question, "Hey, you planning on coming back for your trash?" makes them realize their behavior isn't going unnoticed.Originally Posted by specs

I try to pick up trash when I see it, but I will kick it up a notch this year. Great idea!

IM in too. I will even make a point to put couple trash bags in the boat.

If you keep your eye out in some discount/hardware stores, they have these long handled "grabbers" that work well for picking up trash. It helps prevent getting poison ivy, snake bit or simply dirty from picking up trash. I live on state road frontage, so I always have to pick up trash along side my yard. Bending over repeatedly gets in my back, but these grabbers help a lot-plus they work well for getting things out from behind or underneath appliances, etc. I even keep one in the boat and use it for grabbing my marker buoys out of the water when I'm done fishing in that area.
