Tips from the Bridge Question:
If your fish hold goes down in the middle of a trip, what would you do to ensure the fish does not go bad?
Capt. Karl Ulriksen, captain of the Greek Isle sportfisher. Oh that’s an easy question to answer since it’s an easy fix. You just run the saltwater pump over it and put it on low to keep fresh saltwater on it.
