My question pertains around the mess inside my boat now that I bleed them out. I've been cutting them and turning upside down in a 5 gal bucket. Does anyone use a stringer and throw them over board? Can you explain your process??
Thanks
This is how we do it. No mess at all, my dad is obsessed with keeping blood out of the boat! We aren't even allow to bring the fish past the bench seat.
