You landed a good one, but the only place to put it is a crowded bucket or a stringer that lets fish go belly-up. You need a way to hold live fish and bait in the water, where the oxygen is, without it sinking or drifting off.

This collapsible floating basket holds your catch and live bait right in the water, with a built-in float ring that keeps the top above the surface. It pops open into a roomy net and folds flat when you are done, perfect for kayaks, banks, and crowded pier spots.

  • Floats at the surface so fish stay in oxygenated water
  • Holds live fish and bait healthy until you head in
  • Collapses flat for storage in a pack or hatch
  • Pops open into a roomy net in seconds
  • Top opening makes adding and removing fish easy
  • Durable mesh and frame resist fresh and salt water
  • Clip or line lets you tether it to a kayak or bank
  • Lightweight and easy to rinse clean

Specs: Collapsible spring frame with float ring, breathable mesh, top access opening, tether point. Sized for keep-net and live-bait use; exact dimensions may vary. Check local keep-net regulations.

How to use / care: Tether it to the bank or kayak so it can't drift off. Rinse in fresh water and air-dry before folding to prevent odor.

You finally landed a good one, but the only place to put it is a crowded bucket or a stringer that lets fish go belly-up before you get back to the truck. On a kayak or a busy bank spot, a sloshing pail tips over and your bait minnows are gone. You need a way to hold live fish and bait in the water, right where the oxygen is, without it sinking or drifting off.

This floating fish basket solves that. A bright orange foam ring keeps the top of the mesh cage at the surface so the bag hangs straight down into cool, oxygenated water, keeping fish and bait lively for hours. The open-weave mesh lets water flow through freely while the drawstring top and clip line keep your catch secure. It folds flat for storage and pops back open instantly, so it stows in any tackle bag, hatch, or glove box and is ready the moment you need it.

Built from wear-resistant coated mesh with reinforced webbing handles and a long tie-off cord, it stands up to repeated saltwater and freshwater trips. The high-visibility ring makes it easy to spot floating beside the boat. Great for live bait, panfish, crappie, crayfish, shrimp, and crabs. Choose the 26.5 x 32 cm or the larger 35 x 42 cm size for bigger hauls.

  • Bright orange foam float ring keeps the cage upright at the surface
  • Fine open-weave mesh keeps fish and bait lively in oxygenated water
  • Folds flat for storage, snaps open instantly when you need it
  • Reinforced webbing handles plus long tie-off cord with clip
  • Wear-resistant coated mesh for freshwater and saltwater use
  • Holds live bait, panfish, crappie, crayfish, shrimp and crabs
  • Two sizes: 26.5 x 32 cm and 35 x 42 cm; includes carry pouch

How to use: 1) Open the basket and place your catch or bait inside. 2) Pull the drawstring top closed. 3) Tie the cord to your kayak, dock or boat and lower it into the water.
