Get one of the Plano bait buckets with the insert.
Take some bubble weed off a rock, pat it with a paper towel until it is damp then put it in freezer bags and freeze the stuff. (Freezing kills the bugs.)
Make up a dozen or two.
Then when you get back from fishing keep the eels in the fridge inside the insert of the bait bucket with the bubble weed and a damp cloth over the bucket so the fridge does not dry it out too much. The slime runs out of the insert, and can be dumped now an then. The eels will keep for a real long time on bubble weed and it's a lot less work than a home tank. I keep eels from charters up to a week apart using this method with next to no mortality.
