If your using the built in live well on the 192, I would use it all the time. I'm also new to the live bait/well fishing and have the same boat. As the live well is small keep it going otherwise you will be chunking.

Thanks everyone, I guess on all the time it is.

Yeah, the 192 could use a bigger livewell, but I still love the layout of the rest of the boat. I wish I could cut the livewell and battery hatch areas out and get one built into the leaning post. That would be an amazing fishing layout with a lot of room for that size boat.

On all the time. The rule pumps don't draw too much from the battery, and they can even run dry.

Leave it on.....better for the bait.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

I leave on all the time, I use one of them battery jump packs sao not to kill my batterys. It has a cig lighter plug, and if it gets low i just plug into boats plug.
Also I have a drain and I drain some water from time to time and add fresh water to keep them cool, water temp get warm after a while which will start killing bait also.

As Raider Ronnie said, I leave it running all the time except when I am moving. My water pickup is on my hull so the water flows freely when I am moving. I also upgraded to a Rule 1800 gallon pump to get more water flow.

No boat, back in the suds.
