Down here the flow and the filtration of the water is important but the water temperature is a bait killer.
My mom's boat does not have a livewell. I carry a similar system to yours when I am in her boat. We don't use greenbacks but it keeps shiners alive all day if we add ice to keep the water from boiling. We keep shrimp alive in a six-pack cooler with ice on the bottom and a layer of newspaper on top of that. This leaves the livewell free to put our catch. Two out of three of my livewells will keep speckled trout alive indefinitely.

Water temp is why mine's INSULATED...keeps these fragile herring happy in hot summer months, so if I ever get down your way, I'll pack my tank...you anywhere near Franco in Sebastian?...sounds good on the restaurant...locals ALWAYS know best!!...
