Guest shagging Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 ok first of all you need to purchase an airator its a little box conected to a sand stone available at any tackle store it runs on battery's and keeeps oxygen in the water.try not to over fill your bucket with fish as the more you have the less chance of survival.try too bring a surplace supply of salt water from were you caught them and change a quarter of the water every couple of hours.the larger the space the better chance of living,and as your catching them try to keep the bucket out of the sun!

Dubs The Tackle Man 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Hey smartie, A couple of airators in a 50lt esky does the job, we try and keep the water clean to so if there shittin or you got some berley in there clean the water or add fresh stuff. Shouldnt have any trouble.Like shaggin said you should be able to get an airator from most tackle stores if not try an aqurium or pet shop they sometimes have battery powered 1'sDubs Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Noob fisher Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 hey mate ive got a airater thingy you can have. i dont use it anymore its not battery powered though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afishyfish 4 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Dont forget the stress hormones the fish will produce go out into the water too, and these can be deadly. Keeping the fish as calm as possible will help too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
