I have to rent boats when I go bass or musky fishing. As far as keeping baits handy, I bring a 5 gallon bucket to hang the baits I plan on using on and keep it by me on the casting deck. You can also store your release tools in it. If you are worried about knocking it into the water, you can drill holes about half an inch down and run a few lines of wire through it to use as bait hangers. Caulk the holes with some silicone and then you can put the cover on it so it will float, at least for a while. You can get about 10-12 baits on the wires, but plastics and long tails do get tangled up in it like this.
