My place sits about one mile, as the crow flies, from Mark Twain Lake in northeastern Missouri. I've got a 19' jonboat in the barn. We used to go over to the lake almost every time we came up in the summer. Since we built the pond, we've been over once. It's just too nice being on our own water.
We haven't run into much litter over at Mark Twain, but it's a big lake, and we were fishing out of the boat.
It seems like the empty worm cartons are most often found around public waters. I used to fish at the ponds in Bush Wildlife area near St Louis. Empty beer cans are right up there. I enjoy a beer or two, but hate seeing empties all over the place.
9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
