Hey BigE,
Sounds like you had a good fishing trip. I agree with you on the garbage but I get the sense that most of the garbage is being left behind by recreational boaters and jet skiiers. Fishermen typically have a greater appreciation for the clean water and nature so I believe most fishermen will actually pick up after themselves as well as others. One of the advantage of taking out a houseboat is that we're provided with plenty of large garbage bags and two large trashcans. My rule of thumb is leave the lake and shore in better condition than when I got there. To borrow the motto of the U.S. Rangers/Forest Rangers...."No garbage is left behind."
Best regards,
Paul
