Yeah, the trash is disgusting. I guess it's like our traffic problem which becomes increasingly worse with the population explosion that has been happening. I remember when I used to go up to Reiter and fish on the weekends with maybe 20 guys total on the whole hatchery side. I'm not talking about back in the 70's or anything. I'm talking about 15 years ago when I first started the great sport of steelheading. Sure there was litter, but with more and more people out there on the rivers today there's going to be a lot more garbage.

I have a couple of buddies who fish off of the bank religiously at Douglas Bar that have agreed to help police the "trash" as well as pick it up. I rarely fish off of the bank at Douglas but next time I do, I'll hang up my rod for a while and pick up some garbage. As a riverfront property owner, I know what it's like to have to deal with garbage.
