Mayo jar- drill 2 sets of holes in the jar so that they would be wide enough for belt loops. Don't have them on opposite sides. Both sets in the same quarter of the jar. If they are on opposite sides, say like a bucket handle, the jar won't lay as flat against you. Use some heavy duty cord, tie knots on the inside with a stainless steel washer so that they make belt loops. Snap old duffel bag strap on loops. The advantage of them aligned like belt loops is that it does offer the option of putting it on your belt. Not recommended if swimming. Another big hint is that when you drill the hole in the lid for the cover rope, make sure the whole is right in the middle of the cover. Makes it easier to take the cover off as the cord doesn't wrap and twist up when you try and unscrew it.
Drill a bunch of holes in the cover, and a couple around the part of the jar where it starts to neck down/ hour glass down towards the opening. This will aid in draining water. It is important to make sure you drain ALL the water out of it, especially when its hot out, or your eels will boil and drown. I don't drill holes in the bottom as I don't like the eel slime dripping all over my wetsuit all night. Tends to make it stink. Rinse eels periodically. Dunk jar and drain. I have found that if I put more than 14 eels in it at a time, they kill each other pretty quickly due to weight/ space/ bunching.
Hope this helps and doesn't make it more confusin for you.

Thanks man you laid that out better than a picture
