2ways...
1. soft sided cooler (I use a luch bag size and keep it strapped on me)
2. Mesh eel-bag (I use a laundry garment bag) when I am somewhere I can stash it in the surf line w/a few rocks inside)
Nothing wrong w/a bucket. except you have to carry it.

a mesh bag tucked into your belt, if you don't mind eel slime on your rain jacket. if you do mind the slime, a plastic mayo jar with a piece of rope on it tucked into your belt also works. I like to be self contained and carry everything on my person, and the only thing I have to carry is my stick-mobility means not having to walk back to where you put your plug bag and bucket every time you need a fresh eel or want to move 50 feet down the rocks or beach

I have used the plastic mayo jar for about 10 years now. Got a rope loop with one of those clips (I forget what they are called) on the loop. I just clip it on my wader belt and I am mobile. A few ice cubes in the jar keep the eels sleeping.  |
No boat, back in the suds.

Mesh laundry bag that I stole from Wife  I think she used it for her Victoria Secret stuff, and I dont think she'd want it back now knowing what was in there. |
