I drag them along side of the yak on a game clip.  Quik-tip, if you leave the game clip open its kind of like a big hook, just think of it as trolling for the landlord.

Keeps things exciting

 No threadjack intended, It's just that I think Pinoykeith was thisguy32 a couple days ago and I really am curious as to whether or not you can change your name and otherwise keep all your information.

Thanks for the info about name change.

   As for fish storage , I use a homemade insulated bag.

     Get some heavy duty plastic from the hardware store and make an envelope or whatever shape using duct tape. No spine penetration yet for me, nice feature.

    Sandwich  3 or 4 layers of small bubble bubble wrap within silver insulated bubble foil(any hardware store)and enclose in  plastic sheeting  with duct tape so waterproof. Fold that over and duct tape  so it's slightly larger than your first bag. You could just use the one insulated bag but I like the inner bag for extra security.

   Get a nylon laundry bag from E-bay for outer bag.

  I attached bungee hooks to a cut up bicycle tube so I can tie down the bag on the bow in x. Ruins your wind performance I think , but worth it for me .

   Two or three blocks of blue ice and maybe some of last weeks frozen leftovers from fish cleaning and you got cool for seven hours.

  I think this works as well as the store bought ones that go for around a hundred dollars for cools ,but I've never tried them so don't know. It's super tough and costs practically nothing.

  Here's a pic of the two inner bags that go into a nylon bag. Looks like crap but they are both water tight and the duct tape lasts a couple of years. Probably would double as a floatation device.
 
   I think a game clip is essential in landing a big  Hali and it helps in getting the fish into the bag.



 Here's a post from Prophet with a picture of a store bought , scroll halfway down.
