Kordon breathers are usually only used for really small fish and fry as a rule because they are really thin compared to regular shipping bags and easily punctured by larger fish. In this case, they can't be used because you're talking about fish that are too robust for that kind of bag.
 
If the fish are bagged properly (clean water with oxygen added), they should be fine in the bag for 36 hours. Would be best to bag each fish individually. Main concern would be temperature. In cold weather, styrofoam box with heat pack.
