One Cooler Or Two???

[slimeyslab]

How many people use the same cooler for their drinks/food and fish? I alway's use one and even though I have a livewell, my fish fo right in on top the food and drinks. There is nothing better tasting than a Dr. Depper with Crappie Slime. I have had several people go with me and they just look plain horrified when I pull out a drink with a 6" slime trailer and wipe it off and pop her on open. The way I see it, if there is slime on it then I am catching fish and that's as good as it get's. Am I the only one?

Always a separate cooler for my fish.

I'm lucky in that I have nearly 40 sq. ft. of floor space in my boat.....and that's not including my front and rear decks.....

I use 3 coolers.....

108 qt. for fish livewell..
30 qt. styrofoam for bulk minnows
Travelmate for foodies....

And I still have room for a squaredance......:D:D

Crappie go into the livewell 'til the end of the day.. I think that's why they call it a "livewell".

I like cleaning fish that have been on ice. I think it makes it easier. Plus if I put them in the livewell I wont get that slimey taste I'm after.:D

What's a cooler? :D Fish in the live well with ice, don't need ice for jerky or peanuts. We drink water from the bayou down here.....that's why we all look funny.

My boat is 10 ft long...hah. BUT I can go where most can't. Cypress Garden here I come!

I had to drink fishy drinks when I was a kid fishing with my Dad and I said if I ever got my own boat it would have a livewell. So now fish go in one cooler or livewell and drinks and food in another.

If you don't like the fish slime you can rinse it off in the lake before you drink it.
