My wife and kids dont like fish that much so i end up giving so much away. This year i'm going to bring home about 1/3 of what i did last year. Hopefully we get at least one bluefin run. I dont fell like chasing them all night for 3+ nights in a row but one would be nice.

Nice boat! Yeah, processing costs are something that I didn't have to deal with but now I'd be in the same boat as you. I would be tempted to drive. I have 3-4 150 qt. marine coolers and we brought deer and pronghorn back home from the West side of Wyoming in them.
