Re: Fish Guts
Got a bunch of turkey buzzards waiting for me when I get home. I think they see the boat coming up the driveway and start landing in the trees out back of the house. It took them about 15 minutes last week to clean up the remains of 24 walleye carcasses..

Re: Fish Guts
I cut some into bite size pieces and feed them to the fish in my pond. The bulk I freeze until trash day then pitch. This time of year you can put them directly in the trash if its only a day or two till pick up.

Re: Fish Guts
I put my fish guts in a large paper yard bag and then put it in the garage freezer until garbage night. That way, it doesn't stink and it stays frozen for a while, even in the summer. This time of the year, it certainly isn't an issue keeping it frozen. If you are away from home and don't have access to a freezer, then you can usually find "fish-gut" drums or dumpsters near the boat ramps or fish-cleaning stations. Some places actually encourage you to throw your guts in the lake (not the trash with them, just the fish), so that they will be consumed by seagulls, turtles, other fish, etc. I don't know if every state is the same with that one though.
