Sand fleas
How can I keep them alive overnight? The last time I was at the beach I never saw any sand fleas in the surf during the day...hapeened to notice them at night and caught plenty for pompano bait. Is there any way to keep them alive?

HR just throws them in a bucket of wet sand.

Glad you found sand fleas. Now, if we can just find pompano to eat them......

This works if you leave them in the cooler in the shade and rinse them with seawater a few times a day.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
