Neshaminy Creek

[AndyP]

I'm not very good at adding links but I wanted to share some information I received in an email yesterday. A "Do Not Eat" is in place for all species of fish caught in the Neshaminy Creek basin in Bucks and Montgomery Counties. High levels of PFOS and PFAS have been detected. This is has resulted in the stopping of all PFBC stocking until further notice. Neshaminy Creek Park and Tyler State Park fall within the "Do Not Eat" warning.
I know Catch and Release is practiced heavily but I am sharing this info just in case.

Hey, Andy. See Mike posted somewhere, maybe in spots forum, that the PFBC already plan to cease stocking...
