"BRAINERD, Minn. - Anglers are leaving tons of lead on the bottoms of the state's lakes, a few jig heads and sinkers at a time, according to a new study from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources."

The Minnesota DNR, and the Minnesota Office of Environmental Assistance have a campaign to get anglers to use less lead-based jigs and sinkers. They have several lead tackle exchanges throughout the state every year for the last several years. for more info check out the MOEA web site: http://www.moea.state.mn.us/reduce/sinkers.cfm
