I think you find litter on most venues and yes it gets on my nerves too. I fished the Thames last week from the peg I collected two juice bottles, two empty beer bottles, crisp packets and an empty tin of luncheon meat, put them all in a carrier bag which was also conveniently left in the peg.
Funny thing was a bloke came along and asked if he could have some luncheon meat as he had forgot his. I said I did not have any as I was fishing the Waggler for roach and dace. He looked at me funny and then went away it was only after that I realised that he must have seen the empty can in the bag and thought I was a tight sod not giving him any.
Took all the crap home and most of it went into the recycling bin.
Get a lot of anglers around my neck of the woods saying it is the kids that leave the crap, I think there are as many adults as kids that can not be bothered. It’s just easier for people to blame kids.
