Sure improved our YP and HBG. As far as flavor is concerned.
One of the posts above, got me thinking. I've always taken the fish back to the barn and cleaned them there. (Running water)
But, I guess it's possible for me to clean them down at the pond, if I took the ice chest there.
I've always triple bagged the heads and guts and taken them to a dumpster on the way home. Sometimes though, it's after three days of fishing, and the smell gets a little intense. I guess if I dressed the fish at the pond, I could throw all the "remains" back into the pond, and let the fish clean them up.. We swim in the pond though, so it's never seemed like a good idea.
What do you guys do with the rest of the fish carcass? I've also heard about compost, etc.. I've got too many raccoons around already though.

12 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (decreasing), SMB, and HSB (only two have been seen in 5 yrs)
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
