How do you keep bait alive?

If the tank is square, maybe gluing some curved pieces of plastic (like a cut up bucket) into the corners would help.

Bingo a constant change of fresh oxygenated seawater should do you better...

more surface agitation = more oxygen diffusion.

I don't have a problem with pogies but I did until I upgraded my livewell pump. I had a 500gph and swapped in a Rule 1800GPH. Now the pogies live until Mrs Bass eats them. My livewell constantly flushes the water so they are always swimming in new sea water.
