Last week in search of shad I hiked down the Gulf Branch Trail off Military Road to the Potomac Heritage Trail on the Virginia side upstream from Fletcher's Cove. It was very disappointing to see piles of trash, bait containers, beer cans, etc...along the bank at every accessible point. There was also the stink of rotting fish and chicken bait. I thought shad were protected, and yet I saw one fisherman throwing a large net at them and others killing their catches. In view of their streamside behavior many of these fishermen are also probably lacking licenses too. Is there any enforcement of laws against littering and of fishing regulations?
