They stop all cleaning fish at the fishing docks on Belton

I have been ticketed for not cleaning at final destination. Boocat those dumpsters can get pretty bad.

I tried one of those gray BassPro tables and it sucks. Has rounded edges and a trough all around it. Makes it impossible to run an electric knife laying down flat since you can't work right up to the edge.
Any folding table with a square edged piece of wood or plastic cutting board surface laid on top is way mo better.

You got a ticket for not taking fish home to clean? I call BS! Why would TP&W have fish cleaning facilities if you couldn't clean fish there.

That would be a rule, not a law.

I think he meant he got ticketed for transporting fillets on the boat from another dock or location to the ramp where he loaded his boat.

I got the ticket at Bryan Lake in the 1990's, I cleaned the fish before I went back to the boat ramp. Even if I had cleaned them at the boat ramp the game warden told me that that was still not my final destination. If there are cleaning facilities at a particular lake I am sure that it would be legal to clean them there. I was not mad at the game warden, just kind of an expensive lesson to learn.

I can see that. But the game warden was wrong about cleaning fish once the boat is docked or loaded on the trailer. I have seen guides cleaning clients fish off the back of their trucks at Fayette and there are no cleaning facilities there.

Quite a few boat ramps do not want the fish cleaned there because of the waste issue. Too many fishermen have walked to the ramp and thrown their scraps in the water. This does make for a very unpleasant scene and odor for nearby campers, day guests, and responsible fishermen. As usual, the ones that trash out an area make it tough on the rest of us. Take your guts with you or dump them out there in the lake.

They can ticket you for litering....Dumping fish heads and carcasses in the water at the ramp is about as inconsiderate as it gets.


Just one more cast!
