Pabst?     Truly low class among those who would litter on the ice.   Especially in the land of the 10 cent bottle deposit.  That's the next outing's bait cost!

The thing that really ticks me off, is one of my garbage cans is in the background. The loosers couldn't carry it 200 yds.  ???.

Unfortunate but getting to be the new norm. Cashed in over $7 in cans at Meijers this morning picked up off the ice so far this year, think I'm around 9 full grocery bags of assorted garbage picked up as well. It's getting old but needs to be done.

At least maybe these a**holes weren't ice fishermen. Can't really tell from the picture what they were doing out there. I don't see any holes in the ice.

nice...

plenty of foot prints and snow mobile tracks, take some shots of those and paste them on here too for every one to watch for.
some finger prints too. use scotch tape (fat fingers syndrome) and grab some of those too. put them on here for all of us to keep with their foot prints.

Pick up the trash, pack it off the ice, all we  are doing here , is" preaching to the choir".   We will always have slobs, no matter where we are.  I just try to leave a place, better than I found it. Typing stuff on here will do NOTHING to help a problem that will never go away. I have really tried to make a difference & still, we have SLOBS out there. Just pick the crap up, & be done w/ it.

This is very disturbing,  really don't matter who left the mess.  You have to wonder why would anyone do that.  I looks as if it may have been someone other than fishermen

WMU 1989, thank you for picking up all that  trash. I am assuming you dumped it in the garbage can, because some of that same stuff is what I found today when I dumped them :). I have not checked the receipts on the pizza box, but I will. A Full 2 litre bottle of Mtn Dew, & some leftover pizza ! At least the ice appeared to be clean , when I was making my rounds, around 1:00 p.m. today.  Also another bonus, besides keeping Gull cleaner, from this endeavor; 44 empty cans & bottles & 12 empty 1 lb. propane tanks for another IS friend , that refills them.  I honestly wish that others would try this on 1 lake. IT WORKS !

Well, Hermin, you didn't do a very good job ;D.  I still have about 50 tanks from last year, & that is after giving my brother , probably , at least that many! If you or anyone else needs empty 1 lb. tanks for refilling , shoot me a PM. I will try & help ya out.

thanks to those who make a difference by taking home your junk or giving it to the trash cans. just think how much worse it could be if every one were like the inconsiderate few that think it should be unclean the next time they go out.

some must not realize it is against the law to litter.

that being said, the state that makes that law should know that trash cans should be placed where people park and maintained so kind people like smeltbuster don't have to try to show how it should be done. they put them in parks and other outdoors sites and i'm pretty sure we pay them to do that in taxs.
so what comes first, the trash cans or the law?

where i fish, i do not see trash on ice other than cigarette buts.

it can't feel good to come out to one of our prized lakes only to see it disgraced like that. if you see it happening take pics and give them to dnr. they can't fix what they don't know is broken. if you have any proof who's doing it, pass it along to make it stop. when people realize it will be reported they will stop ruining the water. if you saw some one throwing trash in/on your car, you would call the cops or stop them in person right? the water is also yours. you should want to protect it any way you can.

thanks so much smeltbuster for showing how its done when no one else will! it makes a difference just letting others know people still care.

I checked the pizza & calzone boxes, there were no receipts on them, just an add w/ coupons, for the Kalamazoo stores.
