I read this in yesterdays paper and had to laugh/smirk.......While it sounds like a great idea, we have to realize that the Passaic isn't exactly Lake Ontario or Erie(or other high volume fisheries) and does not have numbers of anglers fishing like these places.......These companies , that make millions every year and have polluted our waters, should be responsible for cleaning up their damages they have done.......the way this is being implicated and proposed, is another public relations move on these companies trying to divert the negative attention being drawn upon their companies and trying to make it like they are doing some good......I call bullsh*t all around.........And who is going to pay for an indoor fish farm?..and in all places Lyndhurst NJ......sounds like a xash plan for the town to generate income for the crooked involved........that cost will be very expensive to build and maintain.......It's not like we have a major fishery here where thousands of anglers flock to fish and will be taking part in...I mean even the newark Watershed only has approx I'm gonna say less than 250 registered people a year(maybe I am wrong but I see the same 20 people fishing throughout the year and I fish those places alot) that pay for permots to fish there and those lakes are quality places.....Realistically, how many people are going to get involved in this.....something ain't right here..........I think this whole thing sounds like a disaster before it even begins, despite the what seems like good intentions...........this simply isn't going to improve on a big level.......that's just my opinion........The way it is expected and assumed is that all of a sudden this is going to attract and draw people to the Passaic to fish......Not gonna happen and it will be a huge failure.......Let these companies pay for the damage they have done or figure something else out.......

bgccfishreacher, I see you are from Clifton....I am as well.....we should get togeher for coffee one day at the diner on Allwood...I'd like to discuss fishing in general w/ you see what that program you are involved in is about.....I'd possibly be interested in getting involved in your program and teach these kids to get involved in something positive like fishing , instead of other things like gangs, violence,
and drugs.........Clifton is such a nice town, but the one side(Lakeview area) is getting rough...I'm in Allwood........let me know
