Rule #1, no warm beer goes into this cooler on multiday floats.Also, I kept all the meat and the most concerningly perishable things in a separate cooler that I only opened once a day to get the meat out for dinner

Aw hell naw! If there’s any beer that is not chilled, it goes in a mesh bag and in the river.Rule #1, no warm beer goes into this cooler on multiday floats.
If ya really want a fish cooler.....not some hard case bulky unit with shelves and side trays etc etc.
Pick up a Buffalogear fish bag.
They are on sale.
The top shoulder bag Coho cooler is for sale again at Costco. Pretty good cooler, I like it.The lifetime cooler from Walmart is great. Here's mine prechilling for my family camping trip this week.

Only drawback is the pebbled surface doesn't take stickers well.
How was your rotomolded cooler experience?Thanks! Showed the wife, she wanted the sky blue one so we ordered that as only gray was available locally. Looking forward to the first trip with it .
It arrived yesterday, it hasn't had a maiden voyage yet.How was your rotomolded cooler experience?
I've got that same model Coleman cooler with me right now. Does not keep ice longer than a day and a half in 80-90* heat.I'm looking to upgrade my cooler. Currently I have a college branded rolling cooler from Coleman that the wheels no longer stay on. Pretty much this: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Coleman/5013596677
I don't have the budget for a Yeti or other super high end, but want something more functional than what I have. I plan on stealing Ive's refletix trick as well.
What do you all use? Would you recommend it? What do you like/dislike?
The lifetime cooler is orders of magnitude better than the Coleman. I put 1 8 lb bag of ice in as a test and left it in my dinning room and checked it once per day. Still had a little ice 4 days later.I've got that same model Coleman cooler with me right now. Does not keep ice longer than a day and a half in 80-90* heat.
Initial load was all the food plus 3ea. 8 lb bags of ice, followed by 1 bag every other day and now two bags every other day. Told the wife today I'll spend more on ice than food on this trip at this rate.
Gonna go the Reflectix route, then find the budget for one of the 55 qt Lifetimes.
