    Default crappie on ice


    How long can I leave fish on ice before I clean them? I want to go fishing this afternoon, but may not have time to clean them before tomorrow...or Friday....or Saturday. I wanted to get a coolerful of ice and just keep adding ice and fish to it until this weekend and then fillet them.

    48 hours, no problem. Just keep the water drained off them.
