Passaic Valley Water Commission...NASTY WATER!!

[Esox Luciano]

Went to a local spot to see wuts up. Where the Passaic River flows under the Market Street bridge in Elmwood Park/Paterson. Raw looking & smelling sewage is spewing from a pipe connecting to the bridge all into the water. I definitely suggest not fishing that area or downstream a bit till proper repairs are made.
I made a few calls to let the proper authorities know so we'll see what happens.

Be careful not to mistake floating turds for surface feeding fish .

Yeah seriously, that river completely sucks .

Esox, not sure if you have been following the current events on CSO's(combined sewage outflows), but a few groups are pushing hard to have the public notified promptly when it is released into the rivers.

Even time I try to fish the Passaic River I waste my time & catch NOTHING!!

Would've been good to know beforehand of the sewage...but I'm thinking they found out by myself calling. Ppl that answer phones for police or municipalities are soo ufcking LAZY!! It's a phone; you pic it up, listen & talk, and God forbid they half to hang up to reach someone else needed for that same happening. From my experiences, ASK AND GET THEIR NAME BEFORE TELLING THEM YOURS!!

I really do hate LAZY PEOPLE!!
