KMTT CLASSIC FISH CARE SUGGESTIONS:
Depending on the length of your run and water conditions (both clarity and wave) as well as water temps, you can do a lot to ensure the viability of your catch up to and including the weigh-in each day.
•Consider using the foam pool noodles cut up into appropriate widths that match the surface area of your livewell. They will cushion the fish from rough water runs etc. We also have a drain plug for when it is rough to insert into our livewell overflow opening so we can fill our livewells closer to the lid. Remember you will have to switch your livewell to recirculate when it is full or your boat will fill up water.

Remember you will have to switch your livewell to recirculate when it is full or your boat will fill up water.•Use livewell treatments, kosher salt is fine for this purpose as it is what’s used by most DNR’s. Commercial additives are fine as well but salts cheap. NEVER use more than the recommended concentration, too much of a good thing isn’t. If using kosher salt (non-iodized salt) a maximum 5% by volume solution is best, of course you’ll need to know the capacity of your livewell which is easily determine by pre-filling with a 5-gallon bucket and noting same on the underside of your lid/s. If you have a oxygenator you can only use certain additives. G Juice is most commonly used.

On runs longer than 20 minutes, take time to stop and refresh your wells with new water before proceeding on.•Learn how to “fizz your catch”, instructions are on the website. Fish in distress are those that cannot maintain equilibrium and float on their side while in the livewell. Your other option is: Fin Clips. Designed as an alternative to fizzing, the Fin Clips gently attach to the anal and pelvic fins of fish to keep them upright, giving them a chance for their swim bladder to deflate naturally. I would not use cull systems that go in their mouth. Smallmouth do not fare well with those. We do use them to balance beam fish only. Carry Ice!!! Take a cooler if necessary, especially if we get warmer than normal conditions and water temps.
