Bought a collabsible fish basket tonight at Walmart for 9 bucks. It has a floating lid so the basket doesn't sink. I've honestly never used one before but I think it would be the ticket for live bream, pinfish ect. I can't just can't see more than a bream or two staying alive in my little flow troll. Seems that thing is better suited to crappie size minnows and stuff. Any of you guys use a fish basket for keeping bigger baits alive?

Yep they are good to keep your fish alive, also allows you to cull fish if you only want a 2 or 3 nice ones to eat.

I've used them and they are good, just keep in mind don't blindly run your hand in there to grab a bait. Water snakes will sometimes come looking for an easy meal.

Ya know I'm reay thinking of getting one of these, I don't like using stringers in sharky water or where Gators could be lurking. I've been creeped out a few times back in blue creek with a stringer full of bass. Big gators back in there

Snapping turtles will trash a stringer of fish too.

Oh yeah. That big one that ate that dog was right near there a few years back.
