Hydrogen Peroxide for your livewell
This tip will work equally well for keeping live minnows or for your catch for weigh-in.
To super oxygenate your livewell water add hydrogen peroxide at the ratio of 1 ounce hydrogen peroxide to 5 gallons of water. Do not excede this ratio. This is how this works.Water is H2O, hydrogen peroxide is H2O2. The extra oxygen atom in hydrogen peroxide bonds with the water molecules to super oxygenate your livewell water.
You can fish all day without using a water or air pump. You do still need to keep the water cool however. Place ice in a 1 quart zip lock baggie and place in the livewell water, or use a commercially made frozen cooler gel pack.
The hydrogen peroxide is also handy for those fishing mishaps that require minor first aide.
Happy fishing! (highjacked from another site)
