    New Study: Ice livewells or not

    New study published this month on livewell temps and how adding ice and temp changes in general affect bass. Some interesting findings, but as I note at the end, definitely need more follow up research to really nail this down. But yeah, kind of makes me rethink things a bit...

    I've often been concerned about releasing bass from chilled livewells into water that's 10-20 degrees hotter.
