How about someone throws together a "NH ice fisherman" organization and sets a date in March for a day of pick up on the lakes. I'm sure you'd get some non fishermen to help as well. I'd bet some towns will even help sponsor something like this.

2KR if you did that it probably would make the situation worse if the slobs knew someone was going to be picking up after them.
I think fisherman should monitor their own. Jot down the name and town on the bob house and call them and let them know if they don't clean their mess you'll report them. After all if we don't enforce the rules our fishing PRIVILEGES will be taken away from us. The "animal rights" people are looking for just this type of excuse to shut down fishing.

They have the same problem here in Michigan. It's probably only 5% or less of the ice fishermen that actually litter, but it makes them all look bad. Many are encouraged out here to pick up after their fellow fisherman, no matter how annoying that may be. If you can carry it out on the ice, you can carry it in.
btw... they call em ice shanty's out here, not bobhouses. :-)
