I thought I would add this here as well. I have this on the Illinois Bass Club board as well. I know a number of anglers are near me on the IL/WI border. Your support is appreciated! PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!!! Let your friends and clubs know about the benefits of Recycling soft plastics.
Just wanted to make everyone aware that I have started a Soft Plastic Recycling Initiative. I am calling it the Wacky Bass Soft Plastic Recycling Initiative. I am located in Northern Illinois on the SE Wisconsin border. I am setting up Drop Off Centers that allow people to discard soft plastics in an environmentally safe manner. I will be working with Hewkin's Custom Baits in order to accomplish this endeavor. The goal is to Regurgitate the baits and give them to participating clubs who can use them for kid's events and fundraising efforts. Please feel free to see my Facebook page Wacky Bass or email me with any questions or concerns at wackybass@yahoo.com Thanks!
