Bagging Up Fish

[M|L]

What should you use to transport a fish (size range of 2"-6") without using the standard plastic bags? It must not be a material that can be easily penetrated or fracture with pressure (say if it were to be stepped on by accident). It must be air tight of course, as it needs to hold oxygen and it must be resonably size to the proportion of the fish.

Any ideas?

watter tight gonna have problems. Better ask your mom for some tubberware bowls with lids the big ones.
Go to wallmart buy one of there sterlite containers with lids. grab a battery powerd airpump and a airstone if the trip aint gonna take more then a day. put like 5 or 6 inchs of watter in airstones. Duck tapes it shut and pop a few holes for the air to escape from the pump

Well type of fish would also come into factor as well. Like if it's a Piranha, you cna;'t just put it in bags, it will bite throught it easily.

what i do at my store is put it in a styrofoam box lined w/ a garbage bag and put water in it and than place the box in another box (cardboard) and tape it up.
