Friday, a friend and I caught about a dozen skipjacks, put six in each livewell. Set the timer to pump water, one minute on-three minutes off. We kept our skipjacks alive for over two hours, and we had a couple large ones over 14 inchers. Unfortunately we didn't catch any stripers, and only talked to one guy that did, but we had bait all day. We used sabiki rigs of multi-colored jigs and would triple and quadruple up on them. Bad thing was,we couldn't catch many 10 inch skippies, mostly big ones, some 15 inchers.
And these are square livewells in a bass boat, not the nice round ones that cost $400.00.
