Bait handling ??'S - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Does anyone have any input on the handling and rigging of live bait? I hear that fish are very picky at times so how much care is needed for my bait. Are bait tanks better than bait tubes? what are the pro and cons of both? I notice my bait fish lose all their slime in a tube. I love the simplicity of a bait tube but is it hurting my bait/ fishing? I have also learned that sunscreen is the devil when it comes to handling bait. Has anyone ever tried to put dines in a tube? Any input or 2 cents would be welcome. Thanks ahead of time.
