And even when I brush my tongue, after a few hours it still smells bad (not too bad) after a while. Any ideas for having good breath for over 7-8 hours?

Bad breath is caused by odor-producing bacteria that grow in the mouth. When you don’t brush and floss regularly, bacteria accumulate on the bits of food left in your mouth and between your teeth. The sulfur compounds released by these bacteria make your breath smell.
Certain foods, especially ones like garlic and onions that contain pungent oils, can contribute to bad breath because the oils are carried to your lungs and out through your mouth. Smoking is also a major cause of bad breath
tooth decay or stomach upset is also one of the reasons for bad breath.
consult your dentist and he will find the reason for your bad breath and then its easy to remove the cause and cure bad breath.
