Best way to dispose of fish carcasses?

<snip> Some states (like mine) will not allow you to legally dump fish refuse in water unless privatly owned.

Which state is that?

Boil for soup stock.

I installed chicken wire around the garden and use the guts to fertilize the soil. a couple critters have tried climbing the chicken wire and failed. So far so good. The garden is thriving also. I bury the guts under the areas I walk. When I replant the rows will be shifted on top of those areas.

Back of your buddy's truck-just kidding I throw mine out the critters.

Or a car wash trash can-just kidding again.

If I'm fishing the next day, I put them back in lake. If not, I put them in a creek or pond nearby.

You can't dump them in Illinois.

If you toss fish parts in the water It's called stream littering in my state ( Wv ) but if you put fish parts on a hook,it's called fishing......
I save some parts ( the head. ) for cut bait,the rest I donate to the scavengers on the back 40.

Take 'em down to the bayou to feed the turtles and catfish.

Double bag them and put into the freezer until trash pick up day.
