What you showed looked amazing, I am anxious to see the other pictures you talked about posting. Looks like you could do that kind of of work for a way to make your living. Wish I had the ability to do that kind of work. Anyway the boat looks great.

I am 71 yrs old been fishing my hole life and have never had a problem icing fish and then taking them home to get them cleaned up. Have also done the other gutting them before taking home and I can honestly say I can not tell the difference……just my two cents worth it’s just a personal choice

There are several lakes outside of Boise that were good fishing when I was living there...Arrow Rock and Lucky Peak both were good fishing from the bank and boat if you have one, used to catch really nice trout from both. If you are interested in perch fishing a really good place used to be McCall. For Cat Fish you have the Snake River and Brownlee Reservoir If you want crappie try Anderson Ranch Reservoir or CJ Strike Reservoir over around the Mt Home area. Good luck with your fishing hope some of them pan out for you.
