If I catch them the day before, I just keep them alive until the next day....
Agree dont stick the fish the day before! Nice catch though!
I see what you are saying, but at the same time if you have only fished the lake once in the past 10 years you need to try to pattern what the fish are going to do over the course of the day and if that means sticking a few of them then thats what you have to do. I can't really holler down there and tell the big fish not to bite. All you can do is hope that the fish will stay on a similar pattern the following day... If it were a lake that I had a lot of experience on I probably wouldn't have even pre-fished at all, but oh well thats the way it goes haha... Maybe next time we will get em on the day it counts.
