'Scraps' that couldn't be sold I guess, piled up just off the highway.

Up until University age, I lived in the North between the Soo, Elliot lake, Cochrane, and Red Rock/Nipigon. I could tell more stories like this than most of you would ever believe....walk into the bush to a few places on the opener and find hundreds of pickerel and whitefish rotting on the ground, or hanging on branches. Huge waste. Sad, disgraceful, disgusting. Has happened to me many times.

Did I mention that those experiences were on the Opener on many occasions...

Good for you for calling it in. All you can really do in that situation.
