I will never understand why you piss yourself with unbridled joy, but are grossed out by eel slime and stink... 
I like the holes on the bottom so the pot is constantly draining. I also put 15-16 eels in mine and pack them in ice before heading out...as I said earlier though it doesn't result in me catching more fish, just keeps my eels death toll lower so I can recycle them for my next trip. I still have eels in my livewell that I purchased in 1990... |
It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole

I don't understand - you won't use a natural self contained sterilization solution in a wet suit but you'll do a crunch hover in a Porta-Potti? What's up with that?

Desperate times call for desperate measures... 
Besides, I didn't have any extra socks with me.

No worry - just so happened that the Google ad on top of the forum had an advert for Tide Tough Stain Remover - you coulda been all set  .

I'm thinking about gear I need to replace and had to run a search to find this one. So much good info in 1 thread.

For those of you worried about sharks, don't be. Yeah they are there, but they wont touch you. I fish alot of the time fishing neck down underwater, standing on nothing at night sometimes with eels on my belt, and hopefully having thrashing fish around me. Only once have i even seen a shark out there, all it did was fin and went away, thats it. sharks are just big fish with sharp teeth. So if any body is hesitant to don the wetsuit and get out there because of the shark factor, dont be, you'll be fine
