Fish storage

that igloo would work ok , you will want to freeze tall plastic bottles of water ,maybe 2 liter ? so the fish can rest around the sides and still have cold vertically almost to the top of the cooler .

A ten pound bag of ice fits perfect,right to the bottom of our 28 quart egloo fish coolers. I never break the bag just lift it up drop in a fish set it down on to of them....repeat.

put your fish on top of the ice .....never let them lie in water

That water jug will work just fine. But I would fill 3/4 full of ice and add water till a slush. Catch fish and submerge in ice bath. Instant death and will be fresh as could be. If ever saltwater fishing use saltwater to make slush with.

I don't understand the logic behind this statement. The fish on top of the ice, especially if there are several layers of fish, will never get real cold and preserve them at there best. Fish buried in a ice/water bath will obtain maximum coldness and retain maximum freshness especially at this time of year.
