Fishing Cooler
Posted on 9/22/14 at 11:54 am

Looking to buy a cooler to put fish in. Typically I fish for redfish and have no more than 3 people in my boat, for a limit of 15 reds. What size cooler would be best for 15 reds and potentially a few drum or sheepies?
Thanks
Thanks

Maybe a 100-120 quart to be safe. I have a 72qt Coleman that has done just fine though. Here is the Coleman with 75 trout, 6 reds and 6 bass and 20lbs of ice and then 10 reds and ice
i dont know how to make the pics smaller

That top pick is one hell of a box.

Myself, Elusiveporpi and my dad put that one together this past winter. It was a good day

Large regular igloo is all that I use, and the fish keep fine in an ice slush overnight and into the next day. Their getting that cold helps to filet them. You do not need a Yettie.

The advantage of the yeti IMO is it won't break handles and latches and hinges like the others do. But definitely isn't necessary.
I have a 70qt marine coleman xtreme that I really like. Stainless hinges. It was only $55. They make a 120 too that would be a great fish fish cooler for the boat.

I'd recommend a 120qt...whatever brand you decide on is up to you.

That was 20lbs of ice, fish were caught a sub 45* day and we're cleaned by noon. More wouldn't hurt but for the conditions, it worked just fine.

I sized mine to my boat so that it formed a walkway connecting the front and back decks without having to step up and down.

Check out a pelican, I love mine. Holds ice for weeks.

Icey-Tek. A lot of sizes and colors with good prices.
