Fishing was an integral part of my childhood.  I’d cast along the shore while floating downriver in my uncle’s fishing boat.  I lost tackle during these excursions but he never gave it much consideration.  I’d tie another line and keep casting.  Eventually I learned the water keeps everything. Those lost bobbers are out there somewhere.

I used Maine’s own Cassie – The Casco Bay Sea Serpent to illustrate the perils of plastic pollution.  Proceeds from the sale of this work will be donated to the Surfrider Foundation.
