    So the water quality is improving, and the amount of raw sewage has been reduce to just this amount......right?

    Wildlife impacts:
    a. Catfish, will not be referred to as "Splat-fish"
    b. Turtles: Change spelling to "Turd-els".
    c. New Spieces Introduced, No Creel Limit and No Size Limits: Lump-Fish
    d. Drum: No change to species, but expect average size to increase.
    e. Asian Carp: "Serves them right for being here......go home!"
    f. Gizzard Shad: Will smell a little better this year.
    g. Bowfin: Have been renamed to "Bowel-fin".
    h. Bass fish: Drop the "B"
    i. Stripers: Now renamed to Wipers.
    j. White Bass: Will change color and take on a light brown hue. Now referred to as "Tan Bass".
    k. Eels: No change

    According to this map, it is just above the dam! Can anyone else confirm one way or another.

    Re: Large sewage spill in Ohio River

    Man this really *****!!! But it is down stream from the falls . We used to eat the sauger in the 60's when the river was bad ,but I would have to reconsider after this foul up .Jeese this really pisses me off.

    I havent fished in a couple of weeks cause I just got the new boat,I finally got the motor switched from the old boat to the newer Hydrasports.

    QUestion for ya'll do you think a 40hp Johnson will plain out a 15 ft Hydrasports bass boat?

    It weighs 650lbs ? Hell I think my old boat probably weighed more than the this one ,and the old one was a trihull ??? ANd it would go 31mph SO I am hoping the Hydrasports will at least plain out ? I will see soon.I did sell the Old Winner 14ft to my neighbor for 150.00
