Howdy Ya'll - How Do U Do It?

I don't know how some of you do it. I mean, I rarely get a chance to fish
anymore (the biggest bitch of becoming a business manager). But when I do,
without a boat, I don't want too. Because I know where the fish are, and
they are not going to be where I have any shoreline access (well, at least
this time of year). So fishing is more of a chance to just be by the water,
and listening and watching the nature that surrounds me. For I know my
chances of catching a fish (of any size), is slim.

It also seems the state, counties, and city governments are greatly reducing
access to lakes and rivers to shoreline fishing. Part of it, a very big
part of it is because the home owners complain about all the trash
shoreliners leave behind. Sadly, I would have to agree. It makes me sick
how much trash (worm containers, food, bottles, lure wrappers, and worst of
all - yards and yards of tangled fishing line) are left behind. No matter
how much I pick up when I am there, by the next time I make my way to the
water, it looks like hell. I guess that is another reason I don't want to
go fishing on one of my rare days off, I have to spend at least an hour just
picking up trash that others leave behind.

I have lost contact with my fellow anglers, so for now, shorelining is my
only choice. PLEASE, TAKE FIVE MINUTES AND CLEANUP YOUR TRASH, and maybe a
few items left by others.

Good Luck, and Happy Fishing!!!
