Next month we are having a friendly tourny, biggest Bass wins..The boat we are using has live wells. What I need to know is what's the BEST way to our fish Healthy durin the Hot days of Aug..

I know there was a sponser here that makes an additive, but for the life of me, I can't recall the name...Also, this will be my first time using a live well, so any tips will be greatly apprciated.

Take a cooler or two full of ice and add so much so often to keep the temp down and add extra oxygen

Sure Life Labs is the sponsor you are thinking of.

You're not really adding oxygen.  As water temperature decreases, the O2 saturation point increases.  So cooler water will hold more oxygen than warm water.

For example, at my elevation (2200'), 67* water will saturate at around 8.4 mg/L.  72* water will saturate at 8.2 mg/L.
