Going Green to Stay Blue

Did you know that by 2050 there will be more plastic

in the oceans than there are fish (by weight)?

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.

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!
