Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Went to my favorite pond today. Where the big ones are coming out of. Found out due to others that fish there leaving Beer cans and garbage everywhere that I wouldn't be fishing there. This just ticks me off. I am respectful and clean up after myself leaving no trace that i was there and due to some jerks my fantastic fishing is taken away. Wanted to know everyone's opinion on people who take advantage of , and are careless with others Ponds and property?

I always leave with more than I bring. It nothing to see bait containers, beer cans, and pop cans, towels, and clothing items in the water either floating or sunk. I try to retrieve all that I can but some time the junk might be in deeper water where I can't get it. If everyone took pride in our waterways and took out what they brought in the lake would be a more wonderful place. But that being only the tip of the ice burg what we can see. We have factory run offs, pesticides, and fertilizes and who know all we can't see but with our laws it is slowly improving.

a watershed that i fish is being treated the same way; sunday when i was there i seen cans, worm cans, trash bags and everything else you can imagine laying in the edges of the water and on the banks too. really pisses me off, and the place i'm talking about is maintained by the wildlife people. This is the main reason nobody wants people hunting or fishing on there property anymore. I would have a sit down with the owner and talk to him and even get his permission to tell people that are there without permission to hit the road!!  Good luck.

People have to respect themselves first. Too many these days don't.
