Title: Problem in the Hackensack river
Post by: Mr Limpett on August 17, 2012, 12:24:13 PM
....Means that Bluefish that leave the river may be dangerous to eat. News 12 said that young bluefish are acting strange, like swimming upside down, crabs are eating toxic mud because they can't catch prey.

Nothing new,the water has been polluted for decades. Now if you want a good news story, make the companies who dumped the chemicals there pay to clean it up. But wait, it used to be legal for them to do so. nts Check back in a million or two years and it might just be gone.
