[Vehicle Trunk] Ability to store fish

I'll keep it short and concise. As the title reveals, I would like to see the ability to store fish in trunks of housecars. Nothing urgent or of high importance really, but it wouldn't restrict you to spots close to 24/7's and fishing spots where noobs gather and usually deathmatch. It would also remove the necessity to constantly run back and forth to a shop (really that doesn't happen while you are fishing irl, does it..) and it would encourage players to stick along longer and have conversations with other fishmen.
Thoughts?

the fish limit was changed from 5 to 1 for a reason you know, just sayin: it wouldn't be fair because any level 1 can get the money for a trunked burrito in 2 poopsocking days, and also level his fishing, so he would make around 5k each run, and that's about what you get with a dropcar that has a 20 minute cooldown

You don't earn 5k per dropcar while having the 20 minute timer.

Yeah sorry I don't know what the dropcar cooldown was for level 5, and for some reason everyone that tries to make fun of each single post i make gets a weird satisfaction. What can i say, enjoy, i don't give a shit that was just my opinion.

Yes, I see your point, but I have taken that into consideration before posting. The fish-poopers are unsocial as it is because they keep driving/going away to the shop constantly, they would likely be more social and speak more if they wouldn't need that, and we know that conversations
leads to more contacts = more likely to rp / join a gang = less poopsocking. So I came to the conclusion that it would sort of backfire anyways.
It
will not be a big advantage of storing your fish into your trunk because you can only withdraw one fish at the time from the trunk and enter the shop to sell it plus the fact that inside the shop there is a slight timer that won't allow you to exit immediately. When you exit you will have to re-open your trunk ( 7 seconds ) and take the other fish so the amount of time you save from this
(if you do save time at all...) would be of insignificant value.
EDIT: I see only positive outcome from this.

When I run into new players fishing, I usually stop by for a few minutes to ask them if they've had any luck. It's usually a no, but either way I give them a few grand with some friendly words and good luck to make it worth their while to actually rp back. It's not much, but it shows them the value as a whole.

Well i got to be honest you got a good point there, but still, 15 seconds is less than the time from water to a 24/7. Maybe a slight fish price decrease would make this perfect.
