Brian and Justin, I would love to install the line receptacles. The only problem is that it is a bit of a drive from Springfield to your locations. I have camped at Sunburst and 11pt Canoe Rental with my scout troop. They were both wonderful places to stay. I also still need to catch a fish on the riverfront at Sunburst. I got skunked last time!

You are far from the only one skunked here, took me a month to get my first flyrod trout on the NF.

Hi guys. I am not sure if this is the right place to post this. I am currently working toward my Eagle Scout rank and was wondering if you guys have any ideas for a community project. I would like to do something fishing related but I am at a loss at what to do. I was thinking of installing PVC line recycling bins at a popular fishing location. What do you think?

It is a great idea. I just want to add and you may already know this, but, add a cap to it. An unintended consequence has been birds getting into them and getting tangled up in the line and dying.

If you are going to do this project ( i did it when i was in scouts ) Us 10 to 12'' Pvc cap the top and bottom, Save the cut-out and use a hinge and install it back over the hole to keep critters out. Our first year we maintained them and found wood ducks and squirrels nested in them. Second year we did the hinge and had no problem. Us screw on caps so whomever emptys them they can place a trash can under the bottom unscre it and the top and push the debris down with a stick or broom handle.
