Bill has good suggestions. I have a commerical tank and oxygen. Bill has hauled fish the way you are.

I agree with Bill. At those temps not sure I'd want to leave them outside to get chilled. You could end up with solid ice and even if temps get too close to freezing your fish could become stressed. I've seen bluegills die in slightly over freezing water. Scooped water from an ice hole to fill a bucket and put freshly caught bluegills in it. They turned belly up almost immediately. Although not trout that should tell you something.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
