Does any one know where the ground up fish waste goes from the State Park fish cleaning stations?
I was talking to a guy at Clinton while he was cleaning some cat fish and he thought it dumped into the lake.
I don't think that is the case, so where is the dumping site?
I think that's the case at most lakes.
If they dump into the lakes I would think so of the waste would float up or we would see evidence of it's emptying out site.
I guess we could run some Styrofoam through the grinder and watch for where it floats up at.
I would like to try for catfish where the waste empties out into the lake, what do you think?
I was told that it gets pumped up to the waste water ponds along with all of the other raw sewage.
Crappiewhipped is correct. Fish parts disposed of in the fish cleaning stations with motorized grinder pumps discharge in to the sewage system of the park and not the lake.
A few lakes around still have small fish cleaning "stations" on some of the docks that consist of only a fillet table and a pitcher pump and these allow fish parts to be dropped back in to the lake.
They must have one heck of a pump set up to pump all that waste at Clinton up the hill and 2 miles away, plus one would think the gulls and buzards would be all over the waste ponds during the crappie spawn.
I know at least one at Milford has a lagoon
I wish they would put one at Melvern. Cleaning 40 last Sunday at the ramp sucked.
Also a trash can would be nice....
