John, I think it is just a matter of preference because I never bleed my kokanee, just put them straight on ice, I've never had a problem doing this and they taste just fine, at least until the green algae starts getting bad at the Berry. That being said, don't let them sit in the water that melts, I always have ice on the bottom, then the kokes, then ice on top of the kokes.
