I made a live well for the back of my Blazer last year. Used a BIG tub with a bilge pump hooked to a garden hose that I drilled holes in and I wire tied to the side of the Tub. Worked pretty good at keeping the herring alive. I got the herring at the Gilbert Stuart run... lots of work. I live lined at the Narrow for 3 weeks and never touched a fish. One of my partners who has done this for years had the same results. I know that live Herring are killer but last year at the River they just didn't produce.
I have made some BIG swimmers and painted them in a Herring pattern complete with scales. I am probably going to skip the live lining this year and just throw the swimmers
