Thumbs up Buckys, Buckys, Buckys!!!

Bring the (fishing) pain Bubba!!!

I picked up one of those Keep Alives last year (capecodtackle & sportsmansden have them) and it works great. 24 is pushing it but there's other you can do. Temp is critical do using ice sporadically helps (especially on hot days). Another trick I started last year was using those anti-amonia pellets from pet shops. The big killer to live herring is the amonia buildup in the waater. That's why people change the water so frequently. Those pellets help control the amonia. I've kept buckies alive for several days with that stuff...


Buckys, Buckys, Buckys!!!
