eff, as long as it works you should be EH ok.
butta and i used 2 make-shift live wells during a club tourney. we used a dedicated battery, and HE changed out the water every 30-60mins. i had to slow him down some how, as he was out biting me 5:1. everything we used came from walmart. i bleed dat the pumps were around $30 a piece.
To answer your question it depends. BASS affiliated tournaments might not let you. I know that 10 years ago I was in a BASS affiliated club and we were not allowed to use use makeshift livewells. Many tournaments will allow you, and most clubs will allow you. You just have to ask the question.
I have used built in live wells and I have used one where I use a large cooler and an aeriator I bought at Wall Mart for $10. The one from Wall Mart works better. I have never lost a fish. It depends on temperature, but you have to change the water. It might be once every 3 hours or once an hour. It is easy to do. I just put the cooler on the front of the boat drain it out, and than fill it up with a large piece of tupper wear.
I say go for it though. Most clubs welcome others with open arms, and are active in promoting the sport.
I have an idea, why not just buy a cheap bilge pump from walmart as well, and this way you drop it over the side of the boat, and it will pump freshwater into you makeshift livewell and then if you don't have a drain hole just put the pump in the well to get the water out.
