Not to thread jack but I have had an issue recently that might help you decide on your bait setup. When using sardines I have a 3.5gal. bucket running off a 12v batt and 500gph bilge pump with timer. No matter what I do the 'dines seem to start dying within an hour or so. I can adjust the delay on my timer and more less doesn't seem to help much. I have recently been thinking a 6v battery left on with no timer might work out better (Thoughts anyone?)

When at La Jolla, I often just use a 2' bait tube as greenbacks and spanish macs are pretty hearty and I don't think one bait has every died on me when I have been out for hours. Bait tube is definitely a good way to experience things for yourself without dumping a load of cash on the latest bait tank.
