Game clip question? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I know a couple of guys that have gotten flipped by Sealions grabbing their game clipped Halibuts. I believe one got his Scotty rod mount ripped out of his yak in the process. Seems to only happen in tournaments though

. Rule of thumb "when in doubt, take it out".

Looking for a pseudo-fish bag? And save a few bucks?

I know it's not the same size/shape as a true fish bag, but it's also a whole bunch less moola.

At costco last week I got a "Giant flexible Cooler for $5.99.

Here is the identical bag at Amazon for you to read about since Costco doesn't have a link:

Measurements:
Holds up to 12 gallons. Keeps food cold / frozen items frozen for up to 5 hours

24" x 18"

yaaa dood keep em coming. great questions and great answers.

i was thinking the gunny sack thing too. just easy dip over the side anytime you wanna rehydrate the fish. Problem is id probably leave it in the rear well behind my milk crate and wonder if the bleeding process would attract the seals or any other unwated visitors as the blood leaked out the scupper holes??
