I can't find the post in the thread, I saw last month. But someone posted that they throw the fish they catch into ice water. Well, I tried it Sat and Sun. There is a difference. I really think the YP, and HBG tasted better. The meat had a better texture also..
So, whoever you are that posted that information, THANK YOU! I will always have a cooler with ice from now on...


12 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (decreasing), SMB, and HSB (only two have been seen in 5 yrs)
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
