fish in my toilet pump?

Its not the first time this has happened. How do fish get into the toilet pump.

The wife smells it first,--FISH she shouts!!! sure enough the toilet wont flush and I have to get my head down and remove the pump.

Then I remove a fish bit by bit with a screw driver, every time you push the button you get fish smell.

That must make it difficult to cook and eat afterwards, surely.

Strainers?

Usually every water inlet has some kind of strainer. Maybe yours has been damaged??

That's another reason to install a holding tank :-)

Yea, that has happened to me. Harring thought it would be a great place to lay some eggs one December, I had at least one fish in every thru-hull--Pretty stinky mess.
