Maryland Department of Natural Resources would like to share the following Smart, Green, Growing Tip of the Day:

Did you know that fishing line can be recycled? The next time you are out fishing, look for the clearly marked PVC piping tubes throughout various Maryland State Parks and don’t leave your line on the ground. Monofilament fishing line is not biodegradable and can harm seabirds, fish, and other wildlife. If your fishing spot does not already have a recycling site, return your used line to your local bait and tackle shops for recycling.
