  • We all know how important live bait can be for fishing, whether it be inshore, offshore, salt or fresh. Live bait can be the secret to catching more fish. In this weeks Tackle Tuesday I show you How to Build a Homemade livewell (baitwell). This is an easy DIY (do it yourself) . project that can save you hundreds of dollars, by avoiding overpriced and unnecessary livewells from the bait and tackle shop. The livewell in this video can be used to keep a variety of baits alive from shad, shrimp, pilchards, sardines, pinfish, bass, bluegill, peacock bass, shiners, blue crabs, grunts and so much more. It can also be used transport pet fish for ponds.

    Great DYI video. One suggestion for connecting your wiring to the battery. Solder your wires together and cover them with heat shrink wrap. The shrink wrap will prevent water from contacting your copper wiring and causing corrosion. Keep the vids coming. Thanks

    I have had a portable bait well for a long time. Quick tip for you. Add a stainless inlet adapter to the inside pump and it will keep trash and fish scales out of your pump. Love the pump you chose. You can actually buy replacement motors for them and want have to tear up your plumbing :)

    @greatwhitesfishingadventur2273 6 лет назад +4

    Great Stuff !!!
    Would have liked to have seen the "Live Bait Well" in action with "Salt water and Livies", in it !!!
    Best idea IS to put a 'Drain Plug' of sorts in the bottom, just makes life so much easier when it comes to emptying !!!
    Thanks for making this video Viktor !! , makes a LOT of sense, especially for those not fishing where they get their live bait from !!!!
    Cheers "Down Under Mike"

    Great, simple project. Lots of value and low cost, low risk project. I think it is easily scalable to smaller or larger live wells. You're right, I can see how it doesn't really work for installation in a boat deck but some parts could lead in the right direction. Thanks. Oh yes, do more. And for us newbies, how about a minimal content offshore tackle box plus another for inshore and freshwater. Not too detailed just what tools and consumables are needed so we Don't get miles from home without the bare essentials. My best to Brook. Maybe she could help with Tackle Tuesday. ; -D

  • @jonnywaselectric
    @jonnywaselectric 6 лет назад

    I made a handy one out of a small bucket, that 5 gallon bucket is ideal. I drilled heaps of holes in the top 1/3 and zip tied a pool noodle near the lid all the way around it so it floats. I made a hatch in the lid to put the fish in easy and they can't jump out. I don't need any batteries or pumps, I tied on a rope and just hang it in the water and it floats. The good thing when you need to move spots there is always half a bucket of water from only drilling holes in the top 1/3 of the bucket. In some situations it isn't ideal, but for the most part it works awesome.

  • @GrimReaper68440
    @GrimReaper68440 6 лет назад

    Here is a suggestion for the drain plug that might be useful , don't use a plug like the ones on a ice chest. Use a ball valve. You can get a twist ball valve or a lever ball valve. These two types of values can be used to on pvc containers. Home Depot is a good place to find these and are pretty cheap to buy. Can't wait to see you use this bait tank on juno pier. Take care and happy holidays.

    What about portable recirculating LW for something like, say, a Jon boat that doesn't have internal LW? I know the priming issue (hose over the side of the boat), but I believe there are diaphragm pumps that can overcome this. Would be a cool option for someone who doesn't have much cash, doesn't want to modify their boat (below-waterline holes in the hull!!), etc.

    you could also use the Flow_Rite pump out aerator head instead of a drain plug. It swivels and when you're done pull the head out and the pump will send water through the aerator and out your discharge hose.
    Tight Lines.

  • @TheTeemroper
    @TheTeemroper 5 лет назад

    Have you ever made a tank with a filter? I live a little north of Atlanta GA and the #1 Striper in the world is Lake Sidney Lanier; or as we like to call it, Big Sid. Blue back Herring is the bait of choice and they do no likey dirty water or even lake water. But you HAVE to filter it as their scales come off really easy and they will die on you. The bait tanks at the fishing store I buy bait are north of $500 because they all filters built into them.

    I had also thought about running some flexible hose through a mini fridge with a pump and thermostat.

  • @jamiecoxe7327
    @jamiecoxe7327 3 года назад

    Instead of a drain plug, you could also consider adding a three-way valve and use the pump to remove the water. This will allow you to empty it from your boat.

    • @LandsharkOutdoors
      @LandsharkOutdoors  6 лет назад +1

      Good point, well that's one reason I like having a circulating pump as seen in video opposed to just an aerator it def helps in cooling the water. I live in Florida and I have never really had a problem with baits dying from overheating. However I do like to change the water as often as possible. You could always put an ice pack in for a shirt amoiynt of tinr

      absolutely, if your water is quality and changed right before you store them. Also I wouldn't put in more than 4 dozen small-medium baits. If you go up to a 50 gallon you can store 10 dozen probably.

  • @eaglecreeker494
    @eaglecreeker494 5 лет назад

    rubber washers would have worked also and none of the mess or permanent problems if a leak appeared later on,or in case you change something or decide to use these parts in a new tank. you can cut rubber washers out of any rubber mat or buy them. Currently making a Minnow Sell holding tank as Ive noticed all the old local minnow shops have closed down and left a need for a live bait shop,,,good way to supplement social security in my opinion,,guess i will find out. picked up a working small chest freezer for free and i will be adding a coat of gel coat in a blue,,light blue color to help assure all areas are well sealed and maintain a better stress free environment. I plan on using a bucket filter although the smaller version made from a large diameter pvc pipe is also a option that looks good too. Haven't decided on a pump yet due to price differences .
