**********************
couple of pics from my early am outing 2day:

pulled up to parking area of Set #2:

WTF !!!



30 minutes later I took 6 minutes to grab a bag from back of truck and pick up nitwit chit:

Karma - what goes around/comes around.. I just boutz had the bag full of nitwit chit, and lo & behold the last plastic bag I pulled from the leaf litter contained unopened lunch meats - like 7 packs of bologna, salami, ham,, WTF - I think someone got the munchies, but was so messed up they forgot they had the munchies -

REWARD for Ma Nature Stewardship -----> Ham Sammiches for Mr Yote Bait Pile...
chaching !!!!!



There was a bit more trash 50 feet away - the end of it, so I stomped da bag contents(no I'ze knotz a Mexican drug smuggler - Mr. RT retired LEO UC MAN!!! - I knowz what uze was thinkin) to make room, picked up the rest, then KARMA struck a 2nd time:::



Lo & Behold - a tight fitting bait bucket full of worm dirt - actually dry - no skanky
dead worm smell - BINGO - GOODKARMA DOSE#2 !!!

I gotz an old school bait holder that fits on belt and has flip top,, so I will not use this bait container as a bait container:

instead

Nursery time for drake's homegrown herbal remedy to alleviate the pain of life in general is right around the block on the ole calendar,

Makes ya wanna start goin through garbage bins dont it. Good job though- hope you and that he dawg get together.

I put one in the back of my jacket. Nancy usually has one in her backpack. I remembered, though. If I see someone throwing trash I'm going to give them a lecture. I hope they hear it as I hold their head underwater. I hate to repeat myself, but I will if I have to.
 
Charlie

Then they say they left in front of the house for the garbage guy and somebody else threw it there=they think everyone is as toopid as they are.

No, I'm a different kind of guide. And yes, I still actually go to the river and pick up trash. By the way, I'd actually say something to a moron. I've had a life of hard labor and  I ain't dead yet... 

R U at the Riva, HT??

Hope so, looking forward to some fresh present-day photos of Steelhead from you & Fyour pardner in river crime - da Fichman,,

It's hard to tell the true colors on the fish when viewing old yellowed-up scanned pics that your competitor produces.....

Trev, we picked up a couple of bags. It wasn't totally out of hand, but still present. HT got a small patch of punctures in his near new waders from what looked like (I almost guarentee it was) sitting on a piece of broken glass. Why the @#$@#$$% do idiots have to carry in bottles?  I couldn't pick up some broken ones, as they would have torn the bag open and prevented me from getting the rest of the crap out. The majority of the guys we saw looked like decent , respectful sportsmen. I can understand a coffee cup or a piece of plastic  blowing away, but  bottles?  A-holes couldn't tell a good beer from skunk **** filtered through a rotten shark carcass....why bother.

Trev you got lucky with the little bit of fresh snow that fell before you got up. The most packed snow I've seen is 6".... it is a solid pack though..have you gotten the little ones in to fishing yet?. talk soon

   Tremendous dollar infusion to State and Local economies too ( millions) so dont let anybody tell us they cant afford to put in and tend to porto potties and trash barrels and do serious LE too.

Have fun with that---and who is "us"? Who incurs  the cost?

Without mincing words to prove ur superior mastery of the English vocab---r we talking State? Oswego Co? Towns along the River?------aint been a bear round here in years

I'm a F'in carpenter with a HS diploma, Metal.  I don't mince , so much as smash. I suppose I could have used  "absorb" instead of bear, but that sounds like a tampon and would end up in the river , too.  You can find  who has responsibility with some easy research. If the State owns it, the State takes care of it. As I said, the parking areas , at least in the Fly Zones and the bank easements are  NYS.  Side of the road areas are a different story and may be town or county depending on the road. Different agencies would  have to be approached. I would think, Ellis, Trestle North, Pineville and all the other designated areas are State.  The one on the corner for the wirehole, I have no idea. Does it suck to have to pay for  lowlifes? Yeah, that's why I'd like to see some education and enforcement to cut it down.Also more private organized  clean-ups.  It'll never completely be gone (unless the fish disappear) and at that point  it'll be too far gone to worry about.

Chain gang is gone(no funding)--Haven't been down to Selkirk in a few--but I believe the barrels r gone as well--all NYS Parks I believe went to a bring in in take it out a couple yrs ago.Don't get me wrong--I hate slobs and trash more than anyone--just don't see it happening......

Gotta wonder how many of the campers are fishin the Lake and $R too. Know the swimmin on the beautiful Selkirk Shores beach aint all that inviting. Did it the first time at bout 16 years old. Feet still hurt from the rocks.

Dime-
That first time swimmin at Selkirk for me was in either 63 or 64--nooooo not 18   it was 1963 or 4.
Gotta take exception to the  Summer fun there- that freakin slime comes in and smells like donkey poop--heck even the green colored water smells without the slime on top at that time of year--swim away  folks lol.

Around here -
   Community service hours is what guys do as an alternative to prison . You get a fine and so many hours to do within a time frame or its off to the hooscow for not meeting the details of 'the deal' that kept you out in the first place.
    When we see prison groups out  cleaning up its generally a workforce of minimum security guys who are working towards good time and an early release- or simply what they get to do as a reward for the good behavior with' outside time'.
    Generally one guard takes a group out to predesignated places to do said cleanup or other services. My ex-brother in law drove a bus doing the work details for years- never had a problem with his guys.
     Like I implied before- would welcome them or anyone else assigned or voluntering to help on the SR. Sent a lot of guys to the prisons and got no issues with the vast majority of them  (cept for the killers and molesters).   
       Most were doin what they felt the needed to do- just hope they changed their minds on that stuff.
