The problem is obviously not limited to us striper-fishermen in the Northeast.

For those of you who keep saying that this spot-burning is not a big issue, you are sadly mistaken. And the not-in-my backyard attitude is similarly wrong.
Joe i read that last night and thought about this thread as well
