37% of Sewers Drain Into Lakes and Rivers Untreated

I live on the east coast of Canada in Halifax, Nova Scotia, located right on the Atlantic ocean. It’s not a big city, but as recently as this summer it was dumping raw sewage into the harbor. Granted, there was a problem at the sewage plant, but the plant was only opened fairly recently. It’s alarming that in this day and age waste is being dumped into oceans, rives and lakes untreated. While the harbor here looks clean, I for one wouldnt want to swim in it, and I’m sure they fish that do aren’t terrible healthy.

As cities have grown rapidly across the nation, many have neglected infrastructure projects and paved over green spaces that once absorbed rainwater. That has contributed to sewage backups into more than 400,000 basements and spills into thousands of streets, according to data collected by state and federal officials.

On the bright side, at least I’m not this guy…

Volkswagen Dogfish Commercial

It took me a while to figure out what this commercial was for, but I like it anyway. The folks in the VW marketing department are some interesting characters.

The Ugly Stik

There are few fishing rods as easily recognizable as the Shakespeare Ugly Stick. They’ve been around for 30 years and are the number one selling rod of all time. I own four of them myself, and they have never let me down. I’ve called the Ugly Stik the best rod in the world, and I’ll stand by that. I’ve put these rods to the test on multiple species and the Ugly Stik has always come out on top, see for yourself!

If you don’t have an Ugly Stik, heres you chance to save $25 off the regular price of an Ugly Stik Tiger from our OpenSky store! Just leave a comment below to let us know you are interested and we’ll pick a winner later this week! And if you already have an Ugly Stik, no problem! You can use that $25 toward any other item in our shop valued over $50!
