Aw.....bait ch#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g.....normally if you're ch#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g bait, you have a bucket. Along with the bucket, I have a bait board....piece of plywood or 1 x 6 cut about a foot long. Place the board over top of your bucket, cut up your bait, flip it over, cast out, and if you get tired of standing (my knees suck, so that happens often), sit your butt down on the board. Then have the rod in your hands, and when you get a bit tired of holding it like that, or wanna grab a smoke or something, keep it in one hand with the butt sitting in the sand or resting on the handle/rim of the bucket.
When I chunk alone on the beach, that is my method. Only time it goes in the spike is to re-bait or if I gotta re-tie or take a leak or something. When I am with other guys and we're BS'ing, it'll be in the spike a bit more often, but as stated above I use a Baitrunner, and it is in the Baitrunner mode with just about a free spool drag set.
