Fishing West Branch of Susquehanna River - Fracking

Joey Bacon, 13, stands ready under the Lance Corporal Abram Howard Memorial bridge in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, next to his fishing pole cast into the West Branch of the Susquehanna River. Joey spends a lot of time around the River, swimming, fishing, and cannon-balling from the bridges that crisscross the water.
