    Dursey sound is a good spot.
    90% of my fishing is done from a small boat but I do know a few rocks that are good.
    PM me if you want

    I wouldnt bother as they turn to mush.
    buy a small thermos flask and keep it in the freezer with the screw cap open a little. Pop the sandeels in before you head out and take them out as you need them. They will stay frozen for a good few hours as long as you keep the cap closed tight. Put it back in the freezer when youget home and they will stay in good condition.
    The flasks are only a few euro in tescos, dunnes, argos etc.

    You can also get wider versions that are designed for soups, these are good if you have frozen crab.
    the likes or razor and frozen black wraps will freeze a few times for you without affecting quality too much.

    Cheers
    The sand eels where only half defrosted so I re froze them. Hopefully they will hold together on the hook for me
