Just curious...I headed to the river today with a big ziploc freezer bag full of ice inside my small back pack. I wanted to keep some whitefish for the smoker. I had a great time catching 25+ trout/whites but i felt like i had to leave earlier than later to keep the fish from going bad.
As i caught the ones i was gonna keep, I just quickly gutted them and put them in a plastic bag on top of the ziploc bag in my pack.
Any suggestions on keeping your catch fresh while staying fairly light and mobile especially as it gets warmer out?
thanks.
btw, I caught a few 20 inch browns but I released them. Smaller trout taste better than the bigger ones right?
