Lots of those fish will go to waste, and you had to know that anything under 25 lbs wasn't winning anything yesterday.
If you're not going to eat the fish----don't take it. Don't delude yourself by thinking that the fish will go to a good cause---cause you know what? The pantries wind up dumping most of the fish that gets donated, because the people that use food pantries don't want fish. They take it because they don't want to discourage donations, but people want stuff for their kids that's quick and easy to prepare--stuff like easy mac and cereal. That's straight from the woman that runs Bourne's food pantry.

People suck
I had no idea this actually happens, you mean people bring their catch to Red Top and weigh it, then leave it there? Appauling, what a friggin waste of fish, I guess those heros don't realize what they are doing to the species we all love.

Mike, you're probably preaching to the choir here , but that should be a sign at Red Top and maybe they will think twice.
unbelievable, I guess I am naive
