The problem with that set-up with water in it the bait will cook. Try putting some ice and salt in the bottom without water. This will keep the bait cold and ready to go.

In a pitch tube there always crushed ice throughout the day not water. I do not add anymore powdered brine as my baits are always prepped and brined at least 3/4 of a day prior to fishing. A good bait will not soften or come apart in the tube

its a good idea. I put an "L" shaped bracket on the top side of it with a hole drilled into it. You know he black balls that hold the rocket launcher in place. I secured the tubes to each side of it and had two pitch bait tube on either side of the chair. One was larger than the other for a ballyhoo and mack on either side of the chair with the rods in the rocket launcher.

If you have a different way that works for you thats great. I dont "blackball" that at all. The bracket idea might help someone out to get it to work for their boat. These are just tips and are open to constructive criticism.

I think he meant to type "the" instead of "he" when he was decsribing the black balls that hold the rocket launcher.
