Freezing panfish
I wanna pull about 100 blue Gill out of the pond. Typically I do this over a couple times through the summer and have a fish fry with 20-30 fish each time. But due to being gone with training so much this summer. I haven't gotten to pull very many out.
I usually cut the head off, gut them, then scale them and cook them whole that way.
What's the best way to freeze these so they last for a couple months?

For only 3 months...I catch a lot of fish Jake all year long..Just put them in a zip lock,,if it's only 3 months..I catch alot of crappie in the winter..I mark the date on the baggie and eat older ones first..If its only 3 months no problem..then I take them out and thaw in saltwater for a couple hours..The main thing..I keep mine in the deep freeze..The bass can have worms so I set my deep freeze at 6 below zero...they reccomend 10 days of this will kill any parasites you may not have seen in your fish..Just a safety measure that's all.
Much less space than a block of ice..I've done both..but if it's only 3 months not necessary
