Storing Large Catch?

Hello everyone.
I was curious as to how you guys store larger catches (butts, WSB, tails, etc) both on the kayak and transporting them home. Ive seen guys with bags strapped to the front of the kayak that hold ice. But where do you guys put your catch on the way home if it’s too large to fit in a cooler? Any tips welcomed as always.
Thanks!
Tight lines,
Johnny

I don’t have a large enough cooler. I bought ice, jetted from mission bay to shelter island pier cleaning station, filleted. Then it fit in the cooler. Since then I carry a couple of industrial garbage bags. You can throw very large fish and ice and reduce the after smells in the car. That’s how I took care of the sevengill.
How’s that Mitchell?

Never tasted 7grill....... or raccoon....

But would have like to...past this buck raccoon dead on the side of the road in the early am, on my way to buy 2 tri tips at gardens farms market in lakeside. Decided to tan the hide....put it on ice but didn't have time to gut it out...if I did you bet I would have fryed some up...the meat looked really good...
