Went to MDR this morning, we took my dad. Sardines were really healthy, only had two go belly up in the live well. Dad caught two bass and Theresa caught one bass and a halibut that was a tad over 26".  We released this one, but we're leaning toward buying a kill bag and start harvesting halibut.  I got skunked

I've got two Calcutta bags. 18x40" and the 24 pack size, 16x24? A bigger one would be nice, but then I would need a bigger boat, car, kitchen, garage, arms...

24 pack works perfect for bass and rockfish. Im very surprised how few manufacturers sell that size. Could wedge sub 30" halibut in there I figure. I filleted the bluefin on the boat (which is a cardinal bluefin sin I pay for with every thawed piece) and fit the loins in the 18x40.

Maybe see if Chris can hook you up with the Deckhand Sports bags.

Bravo Verne and I'm looking forward to seeing all that tasty butt you load into the new bag!
