I like what they do out in the Midwest - like WI and MI and MN. At a
lot of boat launches, they have rinse grates where you can pull your
boat, trailer prior to launch and after launch - the waste water is
contained and any weeds stay there for later recovery. I think that
might be a good program for some of the larger lakes in the NE.


If only that had happened before zebra mussels got out of hand around
here...


What exactly is the problem with zebra mussels anyway?

When I went fishing and swimming in the St. Lawrence Seaway, I loved
the clear water and the smallmouth fishing was spectacular. I had a
huge pike follow a streamer for a good distance and I watched him the
whole way - a good 50/60 feet before he took the bait.

Seems to me the clear water is a good thing.


You should see what it does to pipes, like those used at power plants. I
agree about the St. Lawrence, though. I've never seen smallmouth that big.
Best fishing I've done since Montauk.
