Chilly Bin with ice: Remember to bring a chilly bin to transport your fish.

We suggest you Freeze a two litre bottle of water prior your charter. Put bottle into chilly bin with some salted flake ice, bring these with you but leave them in your car. Catch your fish and put into chilly bin for transporting.

This method keeps fish fresh, prevents deterioration, as fish start deterioration within 3 minutes upon leaving their environment. When fish are immersed immediately into salted flake ice and water while on the boat, it keeps them fresh and they taste the best!
