Fish for family

[mkeller]

Can you ship some Crappie and bluegill fillets to florida? My mom and step dad moved down there last year and love to eat fish. If so what's the best way?

I would guess dry ice would be involved. Go to a UPS store, or call, and ask what they can and can't ship and how it must be packed.
My wife manages a UPS store and I will ask her, I bet it won't be cheap but you almost have to go through such a service to do it safely (for your folks).

Be more fun to go there and catch a bunch for them.

I shipped some venison, wild turkey meat, pheasant, and wild duck breasts to a friend in New England who used to hunt, but is now handicapped & unable to get out anymore. It took packing the meat in dry ice and shipping it overnight. Shipping costs were pretty expensive, though the joy he got from it was definitely worth it.
