Cleaning Up The Creek

Canoes were dropped over the hillside to clean up an old tire dump in Conneaut Creek. Numerous trips were made filling up the canoes, floating the tires down to a pick up point, then paddling the canoes back upstream to load them again. In addition, a number of bags of trash were also collected and taken out. Thanks to the Friends of Conneaut Creek for organzing the clean up and manpower, the Ohio Division of Watercraft for the canoes, organization and manpower, and the Ohio Central Basin Steelheaders for manpower and being concerned anglers who want to make a difference on one of the best steelhead streams in the U.S.
