1. laundry basket
2. pool noodles to suit
3. zip ties

I use a floating fish basket with my float tube, but I wonder if this will work better.  Fish would be in better shape than in a round wire "cage".   I think I would paint the bottom black or dark green, to get the fish to stay down deeper in the basket… less apt to jump out
