1265.1whats happening at the watchusetts?CPDW::OTAThu Oct 19 1989 15:467
    I have been fishing there all year and finally hung up my rods after
    last week.  I got skunked again for the second weekend in row.  I 
    just read an article that says 
    The Shell Oil Storage Center has been leaking toxic waste into the
    Watchusetts and that they think it is a serious leak.  I hope not I
    have caught several nice trout and a whole string of smallmouths there
    the largest being five + pounds this summer.
1265.2It closes Oct 31 stCSMET2::HOLTFri Oct 20 1989 16:1815
    
    
    	I put a call into the editor's of The Fisherman and they
    	had the author of the article call me (Frank Daignault).
        He informed me his source was Mass Fish & Game Biologist
    	Joe Bergin in Westboro.  After speaking with Joe, it seems
    	there was some misscomunication...
    
    	BOTTOM LINE - MDC has they final say and after calling MDC
    	headquarters in Clinton, it will CLOSE Oct 31st...
    
    	Maybe next year,
