pre cooling the cooler with a sacrificial bag of ice is a must. once my first bag melted, the second bag held ice pretty good. i spray foamed the lid on my igloo cooler. not sure if that helped as i didnt try it out before i spray foamed it. sticker on cooler said 3 days ice. i believe it for this time of year but not for summer. after this trip i may invest in a better cooler and keep this cooler for my briskets or as a secondary cooler for fishing/camping trips. furthermore i was very upset at the camping spot i chose i had no idea i reserved an open field instead of a wooded lot. it really put a damper on the trip but the fishing was good. i fished the big flatbrook in stokes state forrest. next time i will have to reserve a different spot.
