[QUOTE="LBrandt, post: 113748, member: 2979"] My Alumacraft has a auto or manual switch for pumping water through live well works well until temps get close to 90s. Then I make room for cooler with liter pop bottles of frozen water. Fish go direct to cooler from lake, like said before makes a lot nicer to filet a stiff fish. But one word of caution, couple of buddies a I were fishing Bitter Lake in SD. when they had a minimum size of 15" and it was hotter then hell out so fish were going direct to cooler half full of ice. We were sizing each fish on a plastic ruler thing on cooler to make sure of 15" because that was the size that was biting that day. Well we got checked by warden and sure enough 3 of our 15" had shorted up to 14 3/4 Well we argued the hot to cold water thing to no avail, even brought up the GEORGE factor. Warden laughed and gave us a 75.00 fine and took the small fish. After that I give a 1/2" shrink factor on min size on hot days. #$%^&>;:;rofl [/QUOTE]
