For the first time this season I had to clean out my fish storage on my boat as I ran out fish bags...didn't realize I was down to the last one. How many of you clean out your fish box/storage after every trip you land fish? How much time does that represent each season? If you forget to clean it...isn't that smell just lovely the next morning! Here's a tip that I've used for about 8 years now. I make my own (long) fish bags during the winter out of 4mil poly. Have a heat sealer and just buy a couple 50lb rolls of 14-16" poly tubing. When I catch something it goes right in the bag, then in the hold. If its hot out I soak a burlap bag in sea water and lay it on top to cover. No blood or slime in the boat...it all stays in the bags. Fish stay in great shape, no mess no fuss (no bleach) and get home sooner after a every trip. I'll put 6 socks in one bag or a large spring per. I give the bags a rinse when I clean the fish and the customer takes them home in the same bags.
