BUILD your own DIY Live bait tank - - - FULL TUTORIAL 

Great video ! Miles better than having air pump!!

Finally someone who show how live well tanks work! Genius

I’m from the US This video was extremely satisfying

very nice step by step illustrations , thank you !

This is a great tutorial. I’ve just bought my first boat and copying this will be one of my first jobs.

Love it. I am going to build something like this for my SUP fishign setup.

very nice! I'll be making one like this hopefully this summer. I have all the parts except for the straight wall trash bucket that I want to use. your video gives me a push to get it done

Late upload!! Lucky my kid is keeping me awake!! Lol

Great explanation.

I enjoyed this managed to order couple of bits a little cheaper.... really enjoyed... Let's see it in action.

Wow! Perfect idea!

Great DIY. I had a 30gallon tank similar to this before but I'm really liking this 8 gallon setup 🤙🏻

Another great tutorial Dave. Great idea making a removable live well. Bring on the fish👍🇨🇦

Will definitely use your idea on my new boat when I get it next week.👍👍

Bloody awesome video mate.

That will work a treat nice job mate

Looking good now dave

Well done!!

Dude u amazing! Thank you 😊

Very nice build!

This is perfect

Excellent informative video and thanks very much !!. I would be grateful if you could provide an update with some video of the well in action with some bait in there please. Just interested to see if it creates a swirl for the bait. But again thanks !!

nice one man, good vid

Great job my friend. Very neat & clean work. It looks like a simple process and I'm sure you'll get plenty of use out of it. Thanks, Steve in FL

Sorry Dave didn’t get a notification. But a great tutorial 👍👍

This look perfect! Best vid on the internet. How long does minnows last in here?

Well done BOYYo :P now get out n smash them fish bro :P Best wishes: LUGGY

looks great,but is it in the way of engine arm when you push it to the left,

Hi, just trying to build a livebait tank and found your video. Can you let me know more details of the 1 1/4” outlet as think you had a good idea but can not find one ? Does the weight of the tank full of water affect the boat handling ? Now you have had a chance to use it would you, if building again, do anything different ? Have you got any videos of you out on the water using it ? Many thanks for the video. Cheers Bob

the inlet also needs to finish in a right angle so the water flows around the sides to form a circular current within the tank

Awesome video mate, do you reckon you could do this with out drilling into your hull to mount the bracket, and I guess you could wire to an external battery so as not to mess around with the boats electric?

Does the slow flow nozzle put Xtra stress on the bildge? Because it's exhaust is blocked. Do you hear the bildge pump rev up when you restrict out flow?

Hi Dave when i made mine livewell i heated up the drum with a hot air gun then fitted the ( skin fittings ) by heating up the drum as you tighten the bolts the skin fittings pull in straight . flat surface like the idea of the regulated inlet flow can you send me a link of where you bought it from Tight Lines Alain

What is the top piece called again? The part that you can adjust the water flow. Thanks and great vid!

great video, would you have a dedicated battery to power this?

How do you make right hand turns with that tub in the way of the tiller arm?

Thank you for the video. What about the longevity of the bilge pump? It is not manufactured as a livewell pump. Any problems in the long run or under heavy use?

Hi Dave great video, came across it as just purchased a warrior and want to get a live well made up. Very much like this one you have done. I am from Swansea fancy making me one ? 😊

Is it possible to put up links to the items you’ve used please

Cheers! This is an epic idea! I'm building one for sure! I just have one question, when you are cruising, does the pump still manage to have enough suction or you just run it when stoped or idling?

And how do you get on with no splashwell at anchor?

I have a Kodiak 32gl tank I just got second hand. So the way it's set up the drain hose is on top and the bilge supply line at the bottom. Looking at yours you have the supply line above the drain. Any idea if the bottom supply is worse. This is raw water not aerator system. Thanks pal

Can you tell me how much rock salt I mix with 25 gallons of water for bait getting

How long can you run the pump before it drains the battery

Will it pump while you're under power?

If you're gonna hang multiple trebble hook lures...... Hang somewhere else. Any false movement and you'll be SINKING a trebble hook as deep as it can go. I clamp all barbs regardless. But you have to hide trebble hook lures.....

Top heavy will fall over with waves also no lid water all over the boat.

im sure this works for most but its not the ideal set up. the water flowing out the exit drain is the water off the top of the surface which is fine in most cases. It means the water down the bottom is not cycling through to the top. all the water at the bottom of the barrel will lose the oxygen and as there is no flow from bottom to top it never gets replaced....but as i said in most cases this is fine. however some fish wont survive in these conditions. it is always ....always much better to have your inlet close to the bottom and your outlet closer to the top. this way fresh water is always cycling from the bottom to top and keep all levels oxygenated. you could say "just add air rater" well thats added expense and its not always the lack of oxygen that kills the fish. Some fish (Slimey mackerel ) stress and produce large amounts of pneumonia and that water needs to cycled out otherwise fish will die. hence why the water flowing from bottom to top is always better.

Can you share the connector info?

Great film and advice but the design is flawed, the outlet pipe is too close to the inlet pipe & should come from the bottom and use a strainer and come up on the outside of the barrel then have a tap to stop siphoning out when electric pump stops
