scum

[SalmonAndStriper Stalker]

did my good deed for the day and picked up the remnants of a 30pack scattered across the ice at a well known location. people are scum and if the owner of the garbage is reading this please leave your address so I can return it back to you through your windshield.

Well done , one bad egg makes us all look bad. Thank you for taking action.

I've picked up about 4 packs of butts off the ice this year so far. Pisses me off. And I'm a smoker

[Dschofield91]

I don’t know what makes certain individuals think this is okay to do. I’d like to think people on IS are better than this. Thank you for cleaning up.

Don't feel alone! We have PIGS here in NY also that trash the parking lots, private properties and mostly the ice.I always carry a plastic bag with me and anything I find I take back and throw it away.Then these lowlifes have the nerve to complain all over that the parking lots and places they once had access to are closed off.Cigarette butts are the worst, you bring them in with you onto the ice, so whats the big deal taking them back off the ice when you go???

One of the lakes I ice fish has a pit style bathroom and somebody threw a whole case of beer bottles in it .
Some people are just brain dead.

[RickWakeman]

As someone who smokes and enjoys a beer on the ice, I always pack out. Butts go in the can, can goes in the trash. Don't ruin the beauty of a frozen lake.

Hasn’t anyone ever heard of “field stripping” a butt, or is that a lost art these days?

Good job picking up the trash. I did the same this morning on a trail head but the dummy left his address on mail that was thrown out with the 3 bags of trash hopefully he gets more then a slap on the wrist. Shame on anyone for drinking Busch spend the extra buck or 2 and get Budweiser

[Jschumacher]

It seems the practice of carry out what you carry in or on is a lost art to some. unfortunately see it everywhere. Ice, Chu, Canal, etc. Nice
job picking up after a scum ball.

[Sam Gee]

What you bring on the ice you take off the ice, it's just that simple. Leave nothing but holes.

Thank you for your help keeping our reaources clean and open to for use. My crew and I always pack out any traah we find left. And we adhere to principle I was taught back in 1992 on NOLS. (National outdoor leadership school, spent 35 days above the artic circle in the Noatak range of alaska). Simply states it is " leave no trace". That means if you walked into my camp today and I was there yesterday you would never know. No food, litter or even patted down grasses that got rearranged before we left.

As sportaman and stewards of the land its our duty to try and help.

Flags up!

Good on you for picking up this scums trash. I see so much trash saltwater fishing, all the bottom fishing spots are loaded with bait boxs, coffee cups, fishing line, etc.  It really is sad. This is how places get shut down, there are a few spots i wish they would close

Thats good stuff Dave but tell everyone what you do with a smooth rock?!!?

[SHaRPS]

Nice job T!

Scum will be scum.

Believe it not I was taught this in one of my college courses.

Kudos for a good deed!

I doubt that the beer-swilling turds are members here, since it would require some level of intelligence and integrity, which that scum obviously lacks.
Maybe, depending on how regularly the scum visits that body of water, a hint could be passed on to the local PD regarding public drinking and likely DUI.

I don't want to rat out the responsible drinking anglers, just the trashy scum.

[Rangerboats391]

most of us where taught the same way ( no trace that we were there, leave it better than you found it)

[city slicker]

I / we pick up idiots crap all year long, summer winter don't matter.
Just slobs  , old balls of fishing line on the shore gets my goat big time.  I go out of my way to remove it.

[pmaloney86]

NIP bottles are what I tend to find the most.  I know ME added a deposit on them bc the trash issue was getting so bad.  I'd like to see MA do the same.  Stretch of river on the west branch of the westfield I picked up 80 nip bottles in like 40 yards.  90% of them were fireball.

Nasty and NASTY. lol

[mikez]

I picked up a 24 pack of empties from the shore of a pond where the locals are trying hard to block fishermen access for just that reason.
To add insult to injury, I didn't notice the cans were all infested with little red ants. I left them in my car overnight and for weeks afterward I had ants crawling all over the inside of my car.

[wardo888]

I just don’t get how leaving sh*t like that on the ice or ,for that matter ,anywhere besides inside a trash bag doesn’t bother some people. It is probably my entitled generation of millennials. Good work on doing the right thing.

Trying to give away all of the dirty little secrets jon.  It only really applies when above tree line Anyways. Just make sure the rocks are smooth...
