Do you keep them on ice without gutting them first?

One day at the most! That is the longest I would keep an uncleaned fish on ice. Just my two cents.

I ice mine and clean them when I get home unless at Texoma and I clean them immediately at the fish cleaning station.

always wondered, what is the benefit of icing them compared to just leaving in livewell and cleaning when you get home?

2 days. A cold dead fish is easier to clean then one flopping around.

Fish on ice 2 to 3 days at the most drain water from cooler. Do not let fish lay in water if possible. Use plenty of ice. If gut and gilled packed in ice 5 to 6 days. Did this many times on a outpost cabin in Canada.
