Hmmm...interesting addition on using the Prime, SH03 - that isn't the blue stuff, is it...

I've got a half dozen eels left I've had for a week under bubbleweed using the 3 bucket system, forgot about 'em under the deck and checked 'em yesterday - still alive & kicking. Forgot to ice them for 2 days - of course, the cool rainy weather helped

The big trick I found using my 150 qt cooler for more than a dozen was putting in 2 frozen gallon jugs of water to keep the temp down to the low 40's - slows their metabolism waaay down and the colder water holds more oxygen - just use one of my old aquarium thermometers to check it pretty regularly

Definitely gonna try that Prime stuff, though - I would guess you can pick it up at an aquarium store.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
