Random thought. Bait is bait. Big bass often would rather slurp up a pogie head than chase a live one. Pogies are fragile. When snagged, blood in the bait tank kills them fast. You need a lot of water exchange (or net caught pogies) to avoid this (they sell dissolvable surfactant/buffer tablets you can put in your tank that supposedly helps some). Increasing water temp kills them, too. Trying to keep them alive in a car seems like a lot of trouble. Why not catch them fresh and chunk them? Or toss and retrieve fresh dead ones....that works, too, as does a big white danny.
