    Which livewell device do you thing works better to insure safe oxygenation for a limit of bass in summer bass tournament?

    The vents are considerably cheaper, no noise or battery drain is a big plus, but I question circulating hot 100 F July air through the livewell when the boat is moving… hot livewell water.

    TP&WD scientific evaluated Oxygenators a few years back. The published evaluation on the net was not a positive 3rd party promotional for Oxygenator sales. I found no other 3rd party scientific evaluation for Oxygenators, not even from T-H Marine that sells them.

    This is a long thread but there were some good points made about the oxygenators. I have them in my skeeter and when used with the recirc pump seems to help revive muskies on warm days better than moving them by hand in the water. Muskies seem to be more prone to heat related issues than other fish so they’re not chased when water gets too warm.
