Personally I use the larger vittles container for 90% of my fishing, but for tournaments when you need to keep the fish alive, I'll setup a small cooler to let the fish have room to swim.

I usually just keep live bait in my live well but have had 3 lmb 17"-21" in it for a fw tournament. If you need any help setting up let me know, Im in Temecula too.

Thanks Eli, I guess figuring out the size of the live well container will be the key. Maybe I'll just wind up doing two separate containers, one for bait and one for a live well. Maybe I can set up an interchangeable pump system that will work with both. It's good to know I have some help here in Temecula. As soon as the holidays are over and I have a little more time I'm gonna try to start outfitting. I'll be sure to bounce some ideas your way.

I dont want to thread jack but are the OEX live wells big enough for the bass tourneys? Are the hobie ones big enough? i want to do the right thing once and not end up buying a bunch of different live wells.
