    You think the irresponsible Canoe KY paddlers leave a lot of trash in the creek, watch what happens after a bunch of drunk tubers visit.

    Don't get me wrong I completely understand and appreciate your frustration and I think most people have been there themselves at some point in their lives with someplace they enjoy. And I agree about those that liter I just got the impression from your first couple of posts that usage and over fishing was of equal concern.

    I see what you're saying, I did mention both. And they do go hand in hand. But I can handle the overfishing as part of the shrinking world. It's the resource degradation that really gets me as the creek gets commercialized.
