IBRRC is a wonderful organization. Fishing line causes so much devastation to wildlife! I wish people who fish would be more careful…I’ve seen line hanging in the trees around lakes. Several years ago WildCare created a fishing line recycling program, based on a successful effort in Florida, for Marin County. We got a grant from the CA DFG Wildlife and Fisheries Council to start the program. There are now fishing line recycling bins around the lakes on Mt. Tam and in some other spots. We hope it is helping to cut down on line just let loose to kill animals. Would be nice to see this program expand to other Bay Area counties!
