would you say they were live blacks or "dark " blow lug? i have kept blacks and blow alive in water and they can fish better than standard gutted or blow kept in paper/sand but they take a lot of looking after.

If you pump them fresh but don't keep them in water are they called non-swimmers :?: :think:
