Location: Hayward, WI | I took this picture this morning. There are weed cutters that operate on the lake and this is were they off-load. Do you think the weed cutter killed this fish? Or did it pick up a fish that was already dead?

Where is the bump board?
I agree with ToddM. Without a bump board this picture means nothing. |

| Just goes to show that no matter the time of year there are always fish in the weeds.
In answer to your original question: I'd say it was already dead. I would expect that any fish in the weeds at the time of cutting would bug out of there long before it got run over. What do they do with that stuff anyway? Seems like it would make really good compost...

They dump it in a farm field a couple of miles out of town. I drove by after work and the fish was gone. It probably ended up as the special at the local Chinese restaurant. |

How can it pass out if it did not inhale? |
