A fish containment device for holding bait and fish, the fish containment device comprising:

• a body member comprising a perimeter wall, said perimeter wall defining an interior space of said body member, said interior space of said body member comprising an open top end such that said open top end is adapted for permitting fish and water to placed in and removed from said interior space of said body member;
• a plate member being selectively positionable on said body member, said plate member being positionable over said open top to and of said interior space of said body member for selectively closing said open top end of said interior of said body member when said plate member is positioned on said body member, said plate member being adapted for being sat on by a user when said plate member is positioned an said body member;
• a bait member being coupled to said plate member such that said bait member extends through said open top end and into said interior spice of said body member when said plate member is positioned on said body member, said bait member being adapted for holding bait to be used by the user when the user is fishing;
• said bait member comprising a peripheral wall, said peripheral wall defining a storage space of said bait member, said storage space comprising an open upper end such that said open upper end of said storage space is adapted for permitting insertion of bait into said storage space of said bait member;
• said bait member extending through said plate member such that said open upper end of said storage space of said bait member is aligned with a top surface of said plate member, said open upper end of said storage space being adapted for providing access to said storage space of said bait member by the user when the user is seated on said plate member;
• said bait member comprising a plurality of fluid apertures, each of said fluid apertures extending through said peripheral wall of said bait member, said fluid apertures being adapted for permitting water in said interior space of said body member through said storage space of said bait member when said plate member is positioned on said body member;
• a plurality of a tool apertures extending through said plate member, each of said tool apertures being adapted for receiving one of a plurality of tools for aiding in removing a hook from the fish and cleaning of the fish;
• a pair of said tool apertures being substantially elliptical shaped such that each of said tool apertures is adapted for receiving one of a pair of pliers;
• one of said tool apertures being substantially elongated such that the associated one of said tool apertures is adapted for receiving a knife;
• a retaining wall being coupled to said plate member, said retaining wall downwardly extends from a bottom surface of said plate member such that said retaining wall extends into said interior space of said body member, said retaining wall engages an interior surface of said perimeter wall of said body member for inhibiting sliding of said plate member with respect to said body member when said plate member is positioned on said body member;
• and
• said plate member comprising a transparent material, said transparent material being adapted for permitting the user to view into said interior space of said body member when said plate member is positioned on said body member.
