Any input would be greatly appreciated. Just got the greenlight to head out for the night.

no help in the short term... But I've learned over the years to ALWAYS have eels on hand. And frozen too.

Thanks for the info.

Not sure what time I will be getting down that way so beggars can't be choosers.

If you can get there earlier than midnight, you can keep eels in some seaweed and on ice and they will stay alive for over 24 hours. I keep eels in one of those minnow buckets where the smaller bucket fits into the larger one. I drilled a number of holes (from inside-out), about the size of regular phillips head screwdriver into the inside bucket, so the eels' slime could drain out. It works great and keeps them from drowning.
