"The urgent request comes at a critical time when families in over 400 homes continue to breathe in toxic vapors that rise into their basements from contaminated groundwater, locals unknowingly fishing in the mercury- and lead-leaden Pompton Lake, and residents living in fear every day that they will become another cancer victim from the decades of poison in their community," stated an Aug. 1 press release from the Citizens for a Clean Pompton Lakes (CCPL).

Yikes...was there last week in the kayak. Had a nice mercury laden bass hit my spook lol.

Was there last week as well in a Kayak. Caught some nice size LMB and lost a big Pike. Going again today. I guess fish like mercury!

Bassload I will be sending you a private message regarding the Pike from there. I've fished there easily 50 times in my life and have yet to land a Pike from there. Fished exclusively for Pike there Friday night (all big flashy lures) and only got the Bass, which I've caught hundreds of from there.
