I realize that this is focused on as a mostly environmental issue, but it seems like not disclosing the contents of the fracking fluid would be a clear cut safety violation.  

Any workplace using chemicals is required to have an MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) on file and easily accessible to employees.  The MSDS is required to list any hazardous ingredients.  So isn’t not listing those a violation since the workers pumping them wouldn’t have that list?  I also have to believe that tank trucks must be regulated in some similar manner.

I work in the food industry and know for a fact that if more than 5 gals of vegetable oil were to be spilled to storm water, we are required to report it.  So how can these toxic chemicals be INJECTED to aquifers and that not be a violation.  This is incomprehensible to me.

Your best bet for MN rivers while in Mpls starts a little over an hour south.

I’d like a rod that was 8 1/2 to 9 feet for casting and fishing which shrunk to 6 1/2 feet immediately upon hooking the fish for ease in fighitng and landing it.

I believe a certain amount of rudeness, unethical behavior, whatever you want to call it, will always exist in any sizeable sample of the population.

On a weekend – 45 mins to wild trout in a very nice little stream.

Ryan, I don’t fish up there much and so don’t have the local knowledge to answer your question, but the MN DNR publishes a nice trout stream listing.

I hope this one is as good as it promises to be – I’ve only been tying for a few years, but already the superiority of quality is evident.

Cool trip!

The only rod I’ve ever broken is a St. Croix that broke at the butt ferrule on the male end.

That TU trailer might be the best thing ever for Airstream.

There’s a rule of thumb to divide the fly size by 3 and then round in the direction you want.
