the problem with things like this is I find they keep thinks "slightly" cool at best and only what is in actual contact with it so these would be better suited just to use to keep the bait well of live well cool IMHO.

I freeze 1/2 gallon milk jugs for the cooler, they have handles and won't roll around like 2 liter bottles do but mostly I freeze my own ice blocks using a tub something like this one: http://www.walmart.com/ip/40977738?r...ingMethod=p13n

I fill it about 4" deep and it makes a good solid 25 lbs block of ice that lasts all day in the fish cooler
