How do you keep bait alive?
I know this is a rookie question and even though I've been catching stripers for 20 years, I still have plenty of questions. A few times a year I go out on my buddies boat in Maine to fish. (all of my other fishing is from shore). We sabiki a bunch of mackerel and a few pollack, 8 to 12 inches. We put the perfect ones in his live well. Bleeders are saved for chunk and chum. The live well seems to operate fine. Fill it up with the pump switch, add water every half hour or so. Some of the fish live just great for a couple of hours, BUT most are dying within an hour, some within 15 minutes. What the heck?
Any advice would be appreciated.
