Default RE: So what do you guys doo with all those fish?

Suckers and Carp are good smoked, if you look at the price of smoked fish in the meat case its worth a little effort to try it. Buffalo and Gar are pretty fair eating, not like Walleye and Crappie but also worth trying. When you're shooting hundreds of fish in a season, certainly the amount you will eat is only a small fraction, the rest of my fish go into a compost pile for fertilizer which I use myself or sell. Some say this is wasting fish but the species we are targeting are underutilized by anglers and usually prolific enough that reducing populations is a good thing overall, especially non-native carp species.
