Party Balloons

Post by rcwhite »

Not being one for regulations, after seeing 2 dozen of these in the water on a run from Barnegat to BI yesterday I would support them being banned. We were well offshore and this is what we could see. There really is no excuse for this and if folks cannot have a party without making a mess for all of us then maybe they should be banned.

Normally we would have stopped to collect the trash but conditions didn’t warrant this...

We troll by and pick them up.

Usually rewarded with a nice salmon afterward. :)
