Where Did All The Dead Fish Come From?

I was at the landfill yesterday and saw an amazing site. MANY pounds of semi frozen fish were dumped at our local landfill. I don't know for sure how much but would estimate over 500 lbs of walleye, northern and other species of fish were dumped. I have an idea where it came from but am not 100 per cent sure so I won't name names. Does anyone else know anything about this?

Wow, 500lbs of fish???...
Back to page topWow, 500lbs of fish??? That's too bad. You'd have thought that the FoodShelf or Salvation Army or SOMEBODY could have taken those fish or at least some of them. What a waste.
Holy cow Kay, you are like...
Back to page topHoly cow Kay, you are like Forrest Gump, always at the right place and the right time in this small insignificant town when negative things happen. You should be a reporter for the DJ, you get all the scoops. If this happened there was probably a reason and as always you, "have an idea who the perpetrator is", next time try calling your suspect or call the DNR or cop's and have them investigate instead of coming on here with your constant spssssss. guess what I saw or heard the other day. It is like watching Bewitched and Abbner telling Gladys to stop looking through the curtains. OK with that said, I'm ready for my spanking.
I have my suspicions about...
Back to page topI have my suspicions about the source of the fish. I'm one of these guys who tends to think that maybe Jesus got ambitious with his multiplication of food, in which case there would be 3/5 as many loaves next to the pile of fish and a big glorious hole in the sky where HE disappeared to, OR Doorsman was out on the lake, he forgot about the limit, and had to get rid of the evidence.
Whichever camp you're in on this one, make sure to whisper it in the eves and make it seem as though your amateur sleuthing (wink, nose-tap) is underway and about to solve this especially compelling mystery. If cat detectives have an entire genre of books written about them, then I'm sure our local sleuth, kay, will at least have our faith in her as she solves this fishy caper.
Keep your ear to the walls, kay, and you'll solve it soon enough. Good luck.
Hey Joe, Jesus would never...
Back to page topHey Joe, Jesus would never have wasted the fish by dumping it. I think he would have made sure it went to good use, even as fertiziler. No only Satan could waste that much biological material in such a blatant misuse of protien. It could have even been used to feed the bears unless of course it had too many dangerous chemicals from our pollutants. BTW no offense taken by your post.
I am a waste of protein when...
Back to page topI am a waste of protein when I die and get pumped full of formaldehyde, dumped in an airtight coffin, and buried in the clay. I would think THAT would be more the work of satan than letting the birds and the bugs take their share of the fish in question.
I'm leaning towards a third option on the mystery of the fish, though. You know how elephants have their secret, sacred cemetaries where they go to die? I, for one, think the walleye might have held their breath and migrated across the shores, highways and fields as a forlorn herd when they got the call to come to God. I mean, if I was a fish and I heard that doorsman was going fishing, I'd just flat-out give up the ghost and go home to Jesus.
If wasting protein is the...
Back to page topIf wasting protein is the work of Satan, then Slick Willie Clinton must be the man. Just ask Monica!! Luckily, she saved some of it. I think the fish were dumped by the losers at the airport who work for the Federal Gov, and inspect packages before putting them on the plane. Sportsman Service probably were shipping some fish on the plane, and they had to destroy the contents, in case they were explosive walleye's inside. I shipped some back on the plane last summer, and by the time my plane got to the land of Dixie, it looked like an axe murderer had gotten ahold of it. Thanks, TSA!! You almost ruined my fish. But, I guess it was in the name of safety. Ya sure!
Joe, the chemicals and vault...
Back to page topJoe, the chemicals and vault would not stop the bugs, since the eggs would likely have been planted on the remains long before they were buried. I like your other theory though it is likely the most probable cause of this mystery. LOL
Very good spoon,...
Back to page topVery good spoon, entertaining, it sounds like mystery radio theater. The only thing I know is that the Doorsman only catches what he can and that is rarely a limit of eyes or other species. Thanks for placing me in such an honored comparitive though, but I can not walk on water but if I could I am sure Kay would report it.
Doorsman, Are you sure you...
Back to page topDoorsman,
Are you sure you weren't out giving my Brother a fishing lesson, & got carried away, and when the DNR got hot on your tail, you dumped them?? LOL !! You can tell me, it's just between us, no one else will know!! I recommend Kay for Sheriff. How does she find time to sleep, being that she has to monitor City blight issues and now keep an eye on the City dump! Maybe the Park found those fish when they tore down the ice house on Big Island!! By the way, Go McCain/Palin!! Anyone for a moose burger??
Haven't been out with J yet,...
Back to page topHaven't been out with J yet, we have a pretty good sheriff now but Kay would certainly be a good "Murder she wrote" guest star. Remember when it was hot and you could go get a big chunk of Franks ice or over at the canadian camp. Agree with the ticket and count me in for the moose burger, medium rare if you please.
Speaking of the Canadian...
Back to page topSpeaking of the Canadian camps, does anyone up there, still eat fried white fish livers? Got to go now. Kind of tired from cleaning up from the tropical storm. We dodged the bullet again, and Hurricane Ike may be heading into the gulf. It's September, and as usual, we just work our way through each storm in the alphabet. Later!!
Roj, I hear some do, I seen...
Back to page topRoj, I hear some do, I seen it, never done it. Hope Ike stays away, from anyone for that matter. Spoon, you know the doorsman only catches the sun when he waits for it. Have a good weekend.
Doorsman, Never ate fried...
Back to page topDoorsman,
Never ate fried whitefish livers?? Used to be a real treat when the fishermen from the camps in the "Socialist Country of Canada" would bring a couple pounds of them over to the Sheriff's Office on Big Island. What I wouldn't give for a big plate of them right now. Don't forget to watch the special program on VP Palin on Fox Channel tonight, it's called "Sarah Palin, The American Woman". She sounds like she is right out of I-Falls!! Have a good one.

Back to page topI just ate the whitefish, deboned better than most fish, and the Vikes play tomarrow night so maybe I will watch the lady.
