[QUOTE="Crow Terminator, post: 5140540, member: 220"] I disagree with keeping them alive until you are leaving. They release a stress hormone called cortisol when caught and put in a live well alive or on a stringer alive. I 100% believe this taints the taste. This is very evident when dealing with trout. Trout come from the cleanest waters you’ll find in the state. But there’s a major difference in how they taste that depends on how they are handled after the catch. Especially between throwing them on a stringer and keep fishing until you get your limit vs immediately putting them into a ice/brine solution. 9 times out of 10 I don’t keep any of them but if I go to keep some, I prepare for it ahead of time and keep my cooler at my side. If I’m not wading, it makes a good stool. [/QUOTE]
