Anchovy go belly up - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Having a 12v pump with a 6v battery isn't the problem, 99.99% of the kayakers on this forum use this setup. I believe the problem may have been that you overloaded your tank with bait and regardless of whether you had a 12v or 6v battery this may cause a lack of oxygen in the tank. I know that many of the bait barges hate giving out smaller scoops to kayaks but try asking, this might help.

Sounds like he had a aerator or "bubbler" not a water pump. Anyway, he dumped it out, problem solved.
