Not sure about the legalities of labeling/transporting/possession limits, etc. Would have to check it out as you are doing. When we go to Mississippi, we keep our fish in ice water until we clean them (daily), flash freeze the filets in our cabin then vacuum seal them and keep them in a 5 cu. ft. freezer that we take with us. When we get ready to head for home, we leave the frozen filets in the freezer and they are still frozen when we get home....10 hours later! Good luck.......Keep your jig wet!!
