I am utterly depressed and disgusted by the amount of fishing related litter by the bow. Each time I go fishing I try to pick up whatever litter I can find, making a special effort to pick up fishing line. When fishing last night on the bow I found a busted fly rod that was discarded along with a bunch of line. Approximately 5 meters away from this was a dead gosling that had gotten entangled in the leader and bled to death after the line cut through it’s neck.
I would like to appeal to people to not leave garbage when out fishing. I would also encourage people to think twice before walking by garbage that someone else left behind and consider picking up one item each time out. Each little bit will help.
