I was actually arrested & ended up losing about $10K in a lawsuit 2 years ago after I confronted an @sshole that was tossin' his beer cans in the water up at Big Virginia. It's amazing that these people are even capable of reproduction (they had to come from somewhere). My parents would've tore me a new one for spitting sunflower seed shells near the water. They new as well as I that the seed shells are biodegradable but, that wasn't even the point. It still looks like $hit when you hit your favorite hole, and some genius has left all his "environmentally safe" waste all over the place. Hey, when I take a dump what's leftover is biodegradable organic material right? I would hope that most human beings are decent enough to refrain from leaving their landmines all over the spot they've been fishing.
People actually laugh at me and call me "The Ziplock King." This is mainly becuase I carry a box of them with me whenever I'm out fishing. There's a box in my backpack and a dozen of them in my tube. They see all these little sandwich bags and think I'm either a drug dealer, or catching fireflys or something. They all get the same answer..."Hey, I'm a smoker....but, you'll never find any of my Newport Cigarette butts on the ground where I fish. I also like to toss back a couple cold ones from time to time. The only thing I ever leave behind (that I brought) is my line, hooks, swivels, lures, and sinkers...and that's only because I got snagged up on some $hit or (if I'm lucky) I farmed a nice one.

And the whole thing about havin' a stringer-full of little guys...That's another one of those things that eat at me that you probably don't have enough time in the day to read.

In a nutshell...No, I'm not some tree huggin' geek with nothing else to do...I just figure that at 25 years old I have developed (what I would like to consider) a pretty good philosophy on not $hitting where I (or anyone else for that matter)sleep, and of course I expect other people to at least come close to living by the same standard. Unfortunately, there are those few (still too many) that either don't care or are too damn stupid to realize what they're doing. And, the downside about being only 25...I'm too young 'n stupid to keep from wanting to push someone's teeth through the back of their head when I see them doing something similar to what has been done here.

I applaud your efforts Chet. Contacting DFG to get them to observe those areas is outstanding. I hope these $hithe@ds pay dearly for what they've done...May the bites of 100 mosquitoes be inflicted upon the scrotums of these offenders...with arms too short to scratch.
Tight lines 'n bent rods to most!!!
