I think most of us bass fisherman are very litter conscious and do not throw trash into or around the waters we fish. It is most likely the white bucket bandits that don't give a crap. That's one way shore fisherman can get themselves thrown out of an area if they litter it up and piss people off.

I agree, if everybody brought a small trash bag with them and carried out the trash around them it would make for a cleaner, safer, and much more enjoyable fishing experience. Well done Esox CT.......

Thanks for bringing it up...

I always have a grocery bag in my tackle box for stuff like that. Plans this summer to clean up some ponds with the (soon to be July 1 Cool

wife. She came up with the idea of strapping a trash can to the quad and driving around the state forest and ponds picking up trash.

Drives me nuts too

My favorite is when you see about a 1000yds of line laying on the ground right next to the line recycling bin
