At Powell, I always have 1 or 2 large coolers about half full of ice. When we get into the stripers (or walleye, cats....etc) I'll put the whole fish on ice until I'm done fishing that spot (or until the coolers are full when the striper fishing is good). Then I go find some shade, cut the fillets off and put em in the Ziplocs.
My dad used to say he didn't like striper until we learned about getting them on ice quickly. Now I do it to every fish i keep (which isn't many unless I'm at Powell catching stripers). A nice fat, firm striper fillet actually reminds me of Halibut.
