here is a trick i picked up from the baitman who delivers bait to the stores in my area,
do keep the minnows cool as in the other post but take i little rock salt about a half a
teaspoon and put in your bucket or ice chest before they add the water it works have you ever notice how the minnow gets red around mouth its from lack of oxygen the rock salt to a minnow is like kitty litter is to a cat.you will not believe how it works until you try it.if i use my 5 gallon bucket i put about 1 teaspoon and in my small minnow bucket i put 1/2teaspoon.
