Hot Tip to Keep Your Cooler Cold from our Friends at Flylab

With the record heat that is gripping the country, when you go fishing you want to ensure you keep your drinks and food cold. Regardless of if you are fan of the expensive coolers or just use your good, ole trusty cooler, you can use rock salt to help ensure your beer stays cold. From our friends at Flylab here is some great advice to keep things cool when it is hot enough to boil your brain.

This tip is simple. If you add rock salt to your ice, it lowers the temperature of the cooler (a lot) and quickly.

The salt does melt a little of the ice, but in turn, creates a slurry. Many times, this slurry is actually quite a bit colder than the freezing point. The slurry acts in two ways. One, it envelopes the contents of your cooler, covering more surface area. Second, it achieves an even lower temperature than melted ice alone.

So, the next time you think about prepping your cooler for a day fishing on the boat, get a decent-sized bag of rock salt and add to the first layer of ice–then add more ice before topping it off with more rock salt.

Need more information or advice, check out this video from the crew at Out the Smoke:
