Depends.If its the persons pond thats there problem, if they have no
respect for their well fish, thats their problem. HOwever its not even
close to being correct or acceptable to dump a fish in any ones pond
if its not your pond


OH man! Now this is a hot topic for me. I take care of the filter on the
Master Garden Demonstration Garden's pond, and you can't believe how many
people dump fish on us.


No fence? No signs?

It is so irritating, but what is even more
irritating, was when we get them grown up to a nice size and they come and
steal them. I'm not even talking nice koi, just big. What people will do
to
a public pond is just beyond me. ~ jan


Here we ask the farmers if it's ok and I never had one refuse to take my
culls. Most don't survive due to the predators but while there, they're good
mosquito control. It's better than euthanizing (sp?) and burying them.
