What YOU Can Do to Slow the Spread

INSPECT your boat and equipment and remove all aquatic plants from your trailer, boat— anywhere they might be.
DRAIN all water from the boat, motor, bilge, live well and bait wells.
DISPOSE of leftover bait in a trash bin, not back into the water.
RINSE the boat and fishing equipment with hot (at least 104 degrees or higher) water, OR thoroughly dry your boat and your fishing equipment— leave them in the sun for at least five days before heading back out on the water.
