Was at Badger today ice 32 inches, fishing slow , wind from the east !!!!!
What really ****es me off !!! Is why are fisherman pigs. Took my dogs out and went over were they were rolling and eating, cleaned up lots of large smelt type fish beers cans, don't need dogs eating fish with bones, then awhile later they got into another spot this time went over and cleaned up only a little but this time but one dog had a large treble in his mouth, thankfully he hadn't clued in yet and was able to pull out,
So again why wouldn't fisherman leave the area the way they found it
:a ngry3:
Alot of people do clean up or even leave the place cleaner than when they got there. However, it only takes a hand full out of hundreds during the derby to leave a mess. I'm guessing that all refuse left over from the derby.
Was the hook still in the bait? Luckily you got him before he inhaled it!
I fished one Friday out there, missed Sat and returned to the same spot Sunday to find a six pack of empty Pilsner. Really, the back of the truck is just as easy to throw them in when your done.Takes all kinds though.
I remember that many times when I was at Carson(Mcleod Lake), I would walk around and wind up seeing chip bags, cans and e.t.c that I would wind up picking up. I would pick up so much trash that some pigs didn't bother clean up, that my arms would fill up right away and that I had to make numerous trips to the truck to get all of the garbage cleaned up.

I cleaned up 2 different sites last year at Badger when I was done fishing.(The Saturday after the derby.) There were probably 50-100 assorted pop/beer cans and some other assorted crap. I never picked up any discarded baits though. I figured the birds/yotes would get those. I believe the garbage was probably left over from the derby as well. We drove past one of those "campground stoves" this year that someone had probably abandoned after stealing it from a Provincial Park on the west side of the lake south of the quonset. We did not have room in the truck for it but I hope someone else picked it up.
Glad your dog didn't get the treble buried or swallowed.
