Using cast net on a 14ft RIB

[ba_fisher]

We have lots of anchovies here and I catch them for bait using sabiki hooks. However, they die quickly probably due to the trauma of being hooked. I am thinking of using a cast net instead. I've never used one before. Would I have enough space on my boat to throw the net?

We catch live sand eels for bass bait by paying out the net from the boat and taking it in from the beach, I then transfer them to a old washing machine tub and tow them behind as they soon die otherwise, my boat is of a similar size but the net isn't in for long but there is room as long as it's just me on board

I have a 4 foot and an 8 foot cast net and can throw either just fine off my SR4.

I catch joeys & launce with sabikis & don't have a mortality problem.
How are you keeping the anchovies in the boat?
If the water isn't changed frequently - ideally continuously - then they won't last long at all.
Either something to keep them in hanging over the side of the boat in the water or a small pump pumping water into the container on the boat & a drain to let the excess back over the side.
I've never used an air pump to aerate livebait so don't know how good/bad they might be.
