I've also looked into the the fish bag posted by swim-dog. However I have also read about the difficulty of landings due to kayaks being top-heavy from too many fish (a problem I hope to have one day).
I thought about using Canyon or Boone fish catch bags [http://www.amazon.com/CANYON-Insulat...RMVW73MG9Z3QQ] that I could use to store my catch in the hull with (I lost my old long range one years ago and never replaced it). This lower center of gravity should make landings easier and not as challenging (unless I'm missing something). The bags are sealed and also easily rinsed out and not as much ice is needed to keep the fish chilled. I can transport my catch in the bag alone or can throw it in a cooler for the long drive home.
Anyone have any thoughts/comments about this solution?
