Show Keep Your Fish Dry. Strange as it may seem there Is nothing in the world that will spoil a dead fish so quickly as water. If your fishing conditions are such as to prevent pre-vent your keeping your catch alive, by all means kill each one as quickly as caught, and having done so dry it and keep it dry. Remember that a fish strung through the gills and thrown overside Is doomed to a 6peedy death by suffocation. If you must string them use one of the patent stringers that holds through the jaw and gives the fish a fighting chance for life. If, however, you can neither treat your catch in this way nor turn them loose in a tank, kill them instantly, wipe them quite dry find keep them sheltered from the sun. pish 'should not be packed so that )they come in direct contact with Ice; place a sheet of nonabsorbent paper petween.
