Just curious what is the right thing to do with dead fish seems to me that the natural thing to do would be to leave them but whats best and do you draw the line on how many youd leave of course smell and eyesore would be hard to cope with


Give a man a fish he eats for a day.
Teach a man to fish he eats everyday.
Show his wife how to mow and you
got a fishin buddy for life.

What are you capable of doing Bonvillian? Do you have some woods in the area you can leave them to the raccoons? Or like R&R suggested, a compost heap to add them too? I would imagine leaving them there is fine, but would add an awful lot of decomposition when you start filling up again. If there are a lot of them anyway. Personally, I would remove and either scatter them in woods if possible, or simply seal them in a trash can until garbage day. May want to take your garbage man out for a beer the week after.

Drag them out of the water they'll be gone in no time..


I believe in catch and release. I catch then release to the grease..
