Claim 22:
23. A system for keeping a fill pump primed between intermittent operations of the fill pump for a portable live well, the fill pump intermittently inputting water from a body of water located below the live well into the live well, the system comprising:
(a) a water intake assembly for the fill pump, the water intake assembly having an input conduit, a filter, and a first check valve within the input conduit, wherein water flows through the first check valve into the fill pump; and
(b) a pump output assembly having a second check valve, wherein water flows out of the fill pump through the second check valve, the pump output assembly creating a pressure differential and turbulence in the water flowing to the live well;
wherein the first and second check valves keep the fill pump primed after the fill pump ceases pumping.
