MD,that's exactly what we did with them years ago. Sometimes we would have a croaker sack to put them in and hang over the side. Most folks then couldn't afford a cooler or there was no ice available.The few coolers around were made of metal and insulated with fiberglass or asbestos.
Ask Pa Futch,I'll bet he remembers. TinCan probably does too.

You're dating yourself with a "croaker" sack. Bet a lot of younger folks don't know what that is! I do tho :(

Congrats on a good trip.

1. croaker sack

A large, cloth bag used for holding croakers after you have caught them. You can carry the croakers home in the sack without being under the watchful eye of the game warden.

Paul lost his knapsack, so he carries his school books in a croaker sack.
