An angler's basket, also known as a creel, is a container used by fishermen to store their catch. It is typically made of wicker or canvas and is designed to be lightweight and easy to carry. The creel is usually lined with wet cloth or moss to keep the fish alive until they can be cooked or eaten. Anglers' baskets are an essential part of fishing equipment and are often used in combination with other items such as rods, reels, and bait.
