Fish Market Report.
 

So I went to the local fish market to pick up scrapes for lobster bait. It is a shame how much fish meat was going to waste. I Picked up about 40 lbs of fish, a lot looked like great filets and steaks. I Packed my cages, made a chum bucket, threw about 5 lbs of meat on the BBQ and fed it to my dog, Put this giant fish thing to decompose out in the back yard, and still had to throw out a ton of fish.

Well done utilizing all of a quality product. If a product won't sell or takes too much to trim or process it gets thrown out. Americans waste some thing like 27% of all edible food in the nation. If you haven't watched the movie Dive! you should. Seriously. Mike

Thanks for the link I will check it out.

very nice to see that the meat is being used for good purpose rather than decomposing in a trash pile somewhere. I've noticed that when i use fish fillets and guts and leftovers, seals really go crazy and suck it out of the cages. when i use macs/sardines... the seals dont really touch it. strange.

its true the soft stuff disappears out of the cages, I stuff them in anyway. I stuff the softer stuff in the PVC, and stick heads, and spines, and fillets for what ever space is left in the cages.
