Do you really need the bilge pump version...YES!

If you are serious about fishing off your kayak and keeping bait alive you need to do it the right way. Yes it's more expenisve and more complicated, but...if you don't have the money right now...save it. Gotta remember that your not keeping goldfish alive in a bucket...sardines/anchovies require lots of fresh seawater to stay alive, and even then your going to see some loss.
