2 seasons ago my co-worker and I volunteered several shifts to count the buckeyes at this same location. All totaled we counted 1 small fish. One.

Don't tell me that there isn't pollution coming into Warwick Pond and other spawning grounds. I've seen it first hand and have attended many meetings with the Rhode Island Airport Corporation (RIAC) in regards to this growing problem that effects the entire eco-system of Narragansett Bay. (striped bass, bluefish and other gamefish feed off the buckeyes).

I'm happy to report that the attitude we received last month from RIAC has improved dramatically from previous years and with a more active mayor, we should be able to rip out the phragmites that are choking the exit water-stream from Warwick Pond, greatly improve the water quality, and increase the number of buckeyes for years to come. I am a proud member of Friends of Warwick Ponds (FOWP), the organization that meets monthly to "restore and preserve the health of Warwicks' water resources." I recommend this organization to anyone who cares about Warwicks' ponds and lakes.

Happy Spring everyone.
