All the marinas over here in OB tell them the same thing. The reason being that the carcasses will sink at first butusually end upfloating uparound the dock and stinking the marina up. Instead they pass the misery on to passers by.

sounds like a "chum" business waiting to open. most boats come in around about the same time, dont they? couldnt someone hang out and gather up the carcasses, grind them, freeze them in blocks and sell them to the local bait shops? would that work? or is it too much trouble for too little $$$$.

I have also thought about "chum" production at marinas.

How about a coin/dollar operated grinder. The fishermen who clean fishat the dock would be mandated to use it. They would place the left overs in the grinder, insert a $5.00 bill and turn their trash into chum. The machine would then dispense into plastic bags for the fishementto take home and freeze. The next time out, they would not have to stop and buy chum, they would use what they produce. It would make for a "Green Marina".

I googled and looked and could not find this machine, however, I believe it would be a hit at every marina. Santa Rosa Marina does have a grinder, but the product emtys into the sewer system.
