I usually don't use the better bait but this was a special occasion and did not want them to die.

Fly my son added the salt later I found he did not use the cup, but just dumped it in and I believe a lot. I checked the air tubes blowing in them and could taste salt and spots of dried water that was on the dock were white in color. The air bubbles seemed small and lots of them. From the very beginning with fresh water they never swam very good.

Yam this was my first experience catching mongos but have had smaller to dollar bill gizzards and if they looked good I have put them back into the tank. What types of problems can that cause?




More question can you have to much salt and if bait is caught >20 fow does bringing it up cause any problems?

I might be wrong, but if I had to hang out in a small jail cell, I would feel much more comfortable with healthy cell mates than a bunch of beat up and sick folks. If you were to throw in a few guys with holes in their head, I might freak out.

I have also noticed a deterioration in water quality when putting used bait into the tank. It seems that used bait release toxins that affect their peers. Thus, if I am practicing caution, I use my livewell to store my used bait while traveling to a new location. If I do not plan to keep my bait past the current day, I throw caution to the wind.
