Members Altonite Posted October 1, 2007 Members Posted October 1, 2007 If I was going to have to guess I would say human. I went walleye and goggleye fishing this summer down there one weekend. With all the drunks that came down on Saturday I'm guessing most didn't get out of the river to take a dump if they even knew they were taking a dump . I've never seen cattle actually in the river on the Spring.
Mark Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 I still can't believe in 2007 that we still allow farmers to use OUR streams as a watering hole for livestock.
Wayne SW/MO Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Its not just livestock, it includes bad septic systems, runoff from food animal operations, wild animals, and humans interactions. Its only safe to assume that any untreated water isn't. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Chief Grey Bear Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 Don't you find it interesting that we don't hear any mention of dioxin in Spring River anymore? I recall back in the 80's it was in the local news all the time. I guess like dioxin, this matter will magically clean its self up too.
