I think it's great that a lot of anglers take a few minutes to pick up trash the slobs leave behind (as Mark put it). It's annoying that people can be so ignorant.
Be careful doing so, however. One stretch of Rock Creek we used to sample was a popular spot for drug use, and we generally found needles (and other "items" I won't mention) every time we worked that stretch. Wear some good boots and be really careful about reaching for things. Various footpaths along rivers seem to attract such activities --

Slobs will be slobs, that's there choice. No changing that. Better to set an example. I usually but not always carry a plastic bag to pick up trash on the way back to the car at the end of an outing. If I don't find an accessible dumpster enroute home, I'll just put it out with the household stuff on Friday. I will say that usually and unfortunately one bag fills up really quickly and is nowhere near enough for all the crap the slobs leave behind.Mark
