Coyote, them there carcasses are the best fertilizer you can get for your garden! I always put a mess under my Maters.
I'll have to stop in Krebs one of these days and try RoseAnn's. Always like finding new places to eat!
10-4 on the fertilizer under the maters
How do you keep the local animals from digging them up?Quote:

And it may have been psychological but I swear my tomatoes tasted fishy.
Be sure to bury them deep enough, LOL.
We caught 3 blues on our jigs while trolling for crappie that evening, letem go. Those things can sure slime up a livewell. In the winter we fish for blues and they go straight into an icechest. When it is cold enough, no ice needed.Quote:

For one, I usually bury the carcasses at least 10 inches to a foot deep. Then, since it's usually early spring anyway, I'll add a bag or two of compost and manure on top and work it into the top soil.Quote:

I have had friends who sprinkled cayenne pepper powder and/or black pepper over the top, but I've never had to use that method.
If you want to add some Catfish fillets to your Crappie fillets, then use some Yum Shad attractant to your jigs. I bought a bottle that was on sale at a Wal-Mart earlier this year and nearly every time I've used it, I've caught either Blue or Channel cats. Can't say the stuff works for Crappie, but the Cats really like it!! :)Quote:
