In Jan 2004 there was a place that would sell white polystyrene eskies for $5-10 and store your fish. We would go fishing, fillet the catch, bag it and label. Take it down to their (I think it was a bait shop) place, they would put it into your esky freeze it and when you were finished your holiday make a payment based on weight and they would cold freight it down to Perth for you.
Worked well for us with 8 people staying and fishing up there for an extended period of time.
if your trying to get more than your limit by sending some down, dont do it as it wont work. fisheries know of the scams and from my understanding from hearing a few things they check load manifests comming out of places know for great fishing. but if its because you cant get your fish back frozen try a return load on one of the freezer trucks that do the trip a couple of days p/week.
