Reminds me of a few years ago. We did a fishing trip on vacation in Costa Rica. Just myself and my wife, and two crew members on the fishing boat.

We came across a giant trawling boat and the captain of our fishing boat asked if we wanted to change what we were fishing for. We said yes, and our guys gathered a bunch of random stuff from the galley and put it into a plastic sack: open bags of chips, beer, soda, other snacks, etc.

We pulled up next to the trawler and the captain negotiated a trade: our food and drinks for a giant basket of their bait.

Both boats ended up happy and we had a great time using their bait!
