Now Dawg, I'm still waiting on that pic you owe me. I may have to make that mandatory in your case before I can let "you" join.

Cledanup. I've been diving when I have seen a crawfish's only escape from the Bass was that beer bottle.

I hope you're not saying that we need to throw more beer bottles in the water. 
That crawfish makes the bass fat, not a bad thing.

Actually I'm kind of lost on the cleanup comment.... i think that may have been intended for a different thread.

Dawg, you didn't read far enough back up the thread.
Donna has proposed an Earth Day Dive Clean Up which would be the weekend of April 21st and 22nd.

Noone complains about bumping a whole ship, plan or tank in the water. I wonder how many beer cans that adds up to?
when I use the metal detector,..I catch and release bottle caps,..it gives me something to catch the next time/

Tell that to environmentalists who kept insisting more PCBs needed to be stripped out of the "O".
In saltwater, artificial reef material is used for a means for substrate to grow. It promotes growth in the gulf, which brings in the fish. Growth isn't occuring on a barren sand bottom.
In a freshwater spring, its just unsightly trash, aside from maybe some algae, there is no growth on the bottle. The algae will grow on anything, trees, limestone, ontop the silt, ect - there's no shortage of base for growth in our springs.
Its simply trash.
Surely you're not telling me the trash is needed to increase the marine life in the springs?
You're a strange fellow Kris.

Just a small word of caution. The last time Mat and I ran a cleanup mission at Morrisons, we brought up several broken bottles. Just be careful what you reach for in the way of trash.

When is the clean up planned? I haven't been keeping up with the thread.
(I might be able to dive if it's to help the environment. (I would help even if I could dive right now.))
