If you are on a canal, have you thought about dropping a live bait cage in the canal? Years ago, the bait camps didn't have pumps, they had cages made of cypress slats that they dropped in the water with a rope and pulley. If anyone is old enough, they might remember the cages at Joe Dugas's Landing on the west side of Big Lake. As long as you have good water flow and the surface water isn't too hot, they will stay alive a long time.
