Thumbs down Rubbish in pegs

How do some people call themselves anglers when they leave so much crap in their pegs after fishing.
I was lucky enough to get a few hours evening session in at Kingsland Reservoir on sunday. At 5pm there was only 4 out of 25 pegs left on the lake and the corner peg I chose to fish was a right mess!!! There was a coke bottle, fag packet, sweetcorn tin (half opened), groundbait, pellets and about 10 yards of line strewn about.
I was not happy and explained to my daughter that this was bad for fishing. She asked why they didnt take it home or put it in a bin.
Everyone was gone by 8pm so I decided (in the rain) to walk around the lake. What a bloody mess it was! I found a carrier bag with empty food packets and half eaten sarnies in it, and I found rubbish in all but 3 or 4 of the recent empty pegs!!
My girl and me filled 2 carrier bags of rubbish and threw the 3 loaves of bread we found to the ducks and cruising carp.
What wrong with these folk, they make me sick!!! its so easy to pick up after yourself as you all know, but these so called anglers must live in pigstys at home.
The owner here must have enough to do without having to pick up after these prats.
I am sure is isnt just me that finds swims like this. Does anyone else have the same problem and have you had any encounters airing your views?
A mad Neilio
