The distinction you make is very valid. I know what you're talking about and you know what I'm talking about.
To everyone else, we are all one group though, so we need to educate "people who fish", and the "fishermen" need to pull a little extra weight sometimes caring for spaces abused by others.
We take trash bags everywhere we go, and my boys are taught to pick up after others/leave it better for the next people.

There is a huge difference between the two. People who fish are the reason the boat ramp at the end of Old Hickory Blvd in Hermitage is closed....not fisherman. For the most part, and there are exceptions as with anything else, Fisherman are pretty good about not leaving a mess, its the groups of folks that go down to the dams and park setting areas on a nice day that trash places, but again....there are exceptions to it.
So yes, i understand what your saying, and i agree but to an extent, but it cant all be tossed into one "bad" category.
