I know Tony did that..........and said the same thing. I admit I've tried it, and all I get is flies and yellow jackets all over the meat and it ruins. If I don't know what I'm doing, fine........I can learn. But I just don't do it that way.

I also have a stringer in my boat.

In this case, I think the attention to the state of the fish was overlooked during other matters, and we (I) should have looked much sooner.
