Carcass disposal? LDWF video

Really is no good place to do it if you don't have land

For fish, I put all the remains in a trash bag and throw in the freezer. Take them out the deep freezer the morning the trash pickup comes. Keeps them from getting smelly

Do the same rules apply for fish carcasses? Sounds like he was mostly referring to big game.

"Any wild game carcass". If fish are not game, then YAY!

And, nevermind

I double bag (sometimes triple bag if its a lot of fish) and tie the outermost bag in an overhand knot to seal it. My trash gets picked up on Tuesday, so usually it's only in there for 4 days at the most. Keep the lid closed and the bag in an overhand knot and the smell never gets too bad.

4 days at the most.

I've tried the multiple bag thing, and at 4 days, my defenses have been compromised.

I think they're referring to big game.

No way throwing fish bodies into waterways is illegal.

Put it in a trash bag, put trash bag in freezer. Throw out trash bag at the night before the trash runs

What if it's like a few limits of trout and redfish? Thats a lot of space to take up in the freezer.

I throw them in the pond behind my house if it's less than 50 or so because there's an old couple in the neighborhood that look at me like "shame on you!" when they see me dumping fish heads in their beloved pond.
