ok I know I went a little overboard with topics today, but I swear this is my last one

Now this is serious, Ive wondered for a while now....and I guess some people do different things...but
what do you do with a fish when it dies and is too big to flush?

wrap it in newspaper, put it in a plastic bag, throw it in the solid waste trashcan?

ive never done that or have had that problem, but that would seem like the logical thing to do, no?

Toss it into your neighbors pond, then ask them what kind of koi it is.

Uh-huh. Let me know when a fish that you have had for years and is big passes. You will be the one holding the bible with a white collar on
. I'm kidding. When a larger fish goes you cannot flush them. If it is a fish that you have had for a long time you can't just throw them in the trash. It may sound like you can, but after hand feeding the fish I personaly couldn't do it.
