LIVELY Fishing at Castafari: Sharing Innovation with Over 250 Anglers

The 2025 Castafari Big Game Fishing Seminar was an incredible event, bringing together some of the most passionate offshore anglers for a weekend of learning, networking, and innovation. As vendors, we had the opportunity to introduce our latest LIVELY Bait Pens—including the new 18, 24, and 36 models—to more than 250 registered anglers eager to improve their live bait game.

Showcasing the LIVELY Difference

Co-owners Jeremy and Bryan were on-site to showcase our industry-leading bait pens, designed to keep bait healthier, livelier, and ready for action. Many anglers at the event were familiar with traditional bait storage methods, but our durable, floating bait pens stood out for their marine-grade construction, customizable water flow, and innovative design. The interest in our new LIVELY 18, 24, and 36 bait pens proved that offshore anglers are always looking for the best way to keep bait in peak condition.

A Lucky Winner Takes Home a LIVELY 300

One of the highlights of the weekend was our raffle giveaway, where one lucky angler won a LIVELY 300 Bait Pen, valued at $1,650. This massive floating bait pen is designed to handle larger quantities of bait, perfect for serious offshore fishing. It was exciting to see the enthusiasm from everyone who participated, reinforcing how valuable a quality bait storage system is for anglers targeting species like Giant Tuna.

Live Bait Insights from Captain Seth Funt

A key takeaway from the seminar was the importance of proper bait handling. Captain Seth Funt’s session on live bait techniques was a must-attend, covering everything from bait selection to maintaining baitfish in optimal condition before deployment. His insights aligned perfectly with what we stand for at LIVELY—ensuring anglers have access to the best bait storage solutions so they can focus on catching fish, not worrying about their bait dying before it hits the water.

Why More Anglers Are Choosing LIVELY Bait Pens

Our presence at Castafari reinforced the growing demand for high-quality bait storage solutions. The LIVELY Bait Pen lineup is engineered for durability, efficiency, and ease of use, setting a new standard for keeping live bait in prime condition.
