Going Green to Stay Blue

Here are some ways fishermen can be conservationists.

--Learn about fish tagging from our interview with our family friend and accomplished fisherman, Art Schweithelm.

--Cut down on plastics and other pollutants.

--Be careful that lure packaging, old line, etc. goes into the trash. Recycle and reuse as much as you can.


Buy local!! Score fishing tips!!!

Use your automatic ice maker or trays to create your own ice bags. I reused plastic newspaper bags.

KIDS CAN SAVE THE PLANET!!!! Rye has an amazing idea that involves all Derby fisherman cleaning up the ocean. He in touch with Derby headquarters and will keep you all posted on what is decided. In the meantime, let's all pledge to grab at least one piece of litter each day!
