Cecil:
You need to make a mini fish haulin' trailer for your JD! I'll take that kind of work over most any other any day of the week.
Actually I have used a really large cooler in a trailer pulled behind the John Deere lawn mower but that's usually when temps are cooler. I don't like moving too many fish and holding them for a little while when the water is warmer. I prefer to put them in a bucket and immediately take them to their destination. I also like the fact that singling in the bucket they won't trash against each other. For anyone that has ever handled a yellow perch or even a walleye it's like handling coarse sandpaper. Two or more fish like this rubbing against each other can't be a good thing.
I'm hoping after this there will be no more major fish moving! I've completely drained down the big pond twice now and don't want to do it again!
