A bucket will last five hours our so. Take the lid off and put it upside down in a milk crate . Call Green Harbor Bait and Tackle and order what you need. I think 35$ a bucket. You will have some giant blues for sure.

I use the canyon bags, and five hours would be stretching it a little. 3 to 4 hours is doable. You can regulate the flow by how much of the bag is in the water. More in the water the faster it melts.
