Gotta question for you fishin' types...
 
If you use a bait tank, which bait tank to you use?

I'm planning on getting one for the pontoon boat - looking around
there doesn't seem to be a lot of choice.

Kodiak.

That's the pontoon boat you don't use, right?

Ta-ta.

I just did 'bait tanks' on Google and came up with all kinds. So,
there must be something more you want than your basic bait tank. Or,
you're looking to save some bucks. This guy's got a bunch of them:

With your abilities, why not build one?

I've got a nice round one. The bait stays alive longer, especially shad.

Yeah - I have one of those on the Grady. Just a little larger than I
was looking for for the pontoon.

I'll give you ten to one odds that I have more hours on that pontoon
boat than you have on your Parker.

Ta-ta.


I thought you were going "boating" - or was that sitting in your boat
at the marina wishing you were going "boating".

Like I said to John - I must have used the wrong search words. :)

Damn... :)

Out of curiosity, this is on your bass boat right? Which size do you
use?

I don't have a feel for how many blue back herring you can stick in
one of these - got any idea?

Actually, I'm thinking of converting the cooler in the front of the
Ranger console to a bait tank - it's a 25 gallon cooler, round and is
connected through the bilge for emptying. The problem is running the
aerator water to the cooler - that is definetly going to be a problem.

Then again, recirculating the water would be a good choice as there
are different oxygenation and anti-foaming additives around - add in a
filter system and the whole thing might just work.

But this is more for the pontoon boat than the Ranger - the Ranger is
a seperate deal entirely.

Depends on what kind of live bait you are going to use. You can get by from
an ice chest with a battery powered aerator and go up from there. If you're
using dead bait, it don't matter, a bucket will do.
