You are becoming one of my favorite anglers! Keep the videos coming

Awesome attention to detail ! You are a winner !!! Taking care of our water is necessary for survival on the planet !!! Thanks Mark

THIS IS GOOD MARK MOST FISHERMAN DON'T CLEAN THEIR LIVE/WELLS THAT GOOD. LIKE YOU SHOWED THIS, THANKS.

That's a great tip on keeping your life well clean and ready for business. at first I did not think it was all that dirty. When you finish that's when I could see a big difference. Thank you for showing us how you take care of your boat. Also good luck for this coming season.

I was honored to have you in my backyard here in NC. It was the best day of 2019 to have met you at Bass Pro Shops. You and Wheeler are all I watch on TV. Stay country and thanks for taking the time to interact with us fishermen that cannot make it to the big league.

I watched this video two years ago when it came out but when I needed to search what the pros do to clean your livewells I clicked on yours first! Mine's been neglected and it's about to get squeeky. Hook em hard Mark!

Very informative, just enough for the common man or tournament fisher to understand how and WHY to keep your livewells clean👍 Keep the great vids coming

I enjoy your videos, your attitude and work ethic. My God continue to bless you and yours.

Excellence starts by knowing the basics. Thank you for sharing an important part of fishing conservation. You also help us understand that being a pro fisherman isn’t all glamour. Thanks for sharing!

Bro, I'm twelve and don't have a boat but am watching anyway cause you are the best!\ And it might come in handy someday!

Thanks for all the helpful fishing... now cleaning tips!!! Much appreciated Mr. Daniels!

Good deal man, checking out videos of how guys do it. One thing I like to do is hit it with a vacuum to get the big chunks first so they don’t potentially screw up my drain valve. I once had a tourney where I forgot to clean them and had 3-4 little baitfish get puked up. Never forget to clean them after getting that smell out lol

Great video, alot of people probably never think about. Great conservation effort. Good on you Mark. We will be pulling for you.

When I had my Ranger a few years back, that's how I did mine. Took a while but livewells were clean! Never lost a fish!

Didn't know we had to do that...great tutorial...God bless

Dude...Keep the videos coming! It is extremely inspiring to be able to see and get insight from pro anglers like you and Wheeler who post on KZread!

Good video Mark. I'm surprised every day by what people find interesting to watch on social media. Good luck this season! 👍🐟🎣🎏

What up Mark, this youtube “suggestion” came up after I watched your video about the clear straw keeper that was just posted today. This makes me even more serious about putting me in the line for your boat in 2-3 years! You’re taking care of equipment ALL around! Let’s just say I had to dig some Red Bull cans out of a certain someone’s live-well the other day!😂 🤙🤛

Not being a tournament angler I only have my livewell once a year maybe...if crappie fishing and not bass fishing. But this was pretty interesting for sure. Thank you for the vid and the basic products and great instructions

I love your informative videos, keep them coming. Keep up the great work.

Been watching you since Circuit Breaker!! Love your style of fishing! Keep up the good work!

When I finished fishing Old Hickory last time. I added soap to my livewells and it shook up all the way back here to Alabama. I rinsed them out in my driveway and looking good...

Good stuff, keep them coming . Good luck on MLF tour

I don’t have a bot like that but maybe I would be a little careful of the bleach on near that carpet!!! When doing the lids that’s all I could think of.. lol Great video and best of luck this year

Can't believe there's a thumbs down hater on how someone clean there own live well !!!

Great video. Definetly a must to ensure our waterways and fisheries are safe from any evasive algae or bacteria. Also, what setting do you prefer recirculate or automatic when you store bass in your livewell? Again thanks for the vid.

Nice Bro..I use dawn, white vinegar and baking soda for my live wells

Mark, I was waiting to see if you filled the tanks up with fresh water and ran the pump when you were done. There is residue of bleach and soap in the recirculating system if you do not. It is a small amount but maybe enough to harm to the fish.

Thanks. I'm going to have to follow, you seem like a good Dude. Good luck

I use my bay boat livewells for bait only, no fish culling (mullet, shad, ballyhoo, shrimp, crab). When I go freshwater striper fishing I have a 50 gallon Creekbank filtered tank I use and load it down with shad. I clean boat baitwells and bait tank the same. I pour approx 1/2 gallon bleach in 50 gallon filtered bait tank as I am filling with water (about 1/4 gallon bleach in 30 gallon baitwells), filter in place with pump and aerator running. Fill the tank with water, let it run for 15-20 minutes. Turn off pump and let it sit for a few hours, no scrubbing needed. After sitting a few hours or until next day, run pump for a few more minutes, turn off pump and drain tank. Rinse very well with fresh water then repeat same steps with a box of baking soda added in water (no bleach). Few hours later or next day, rinse clean and sanitized tank. The baking soda neutralizes the bleach, there will be no smell of bleach and tank is ready for lively shad. This method has worked for me for 15+ years, never loose bait due to chemicals.

Chris M yessir, I like it 👍🏾

Love the way you fish and handle yourself, from pre-fishing thru the tournament and how you relate to the public as well as to other pro anglers. Such respect you show! I hope you get it back 2-fold. Question about this simple, excellent video: do you have any concerns about how the bleach and/or Dawn affect the Oxygenator? I hand-scrub with baking soda and just a little water because of my concerns about them. But I always wonder if my concerns are ill founded. I don’t walk under ladders, either! Lol!

Mark, You mentioned that there is one other screen on the Ranger that you clean out. Where is it located? Is that the one at the bottom of the transom? Great video. Thanks. Just subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to more of your videos.

awesome video.

Been looking for this for a while

You aren’t worried about the bleach on the carpet and clothing? BTW very thorough video.

Rodney Pratt Not fishing Hartwell this year but thank you 👍🏾

So are you running the pump in recirculate or auto? also does the screen on the back of the boat where the water dumps out screw off also?

@markdanielsjr This is just another example of why I respect you as a person & a hammer on the water. Thanks M.A.D.Nificent #MDJ Always great concept as it relates to your content.

Nice video. Gonna give it a try. My switch selector for my live wells is somewhat hard to turn. Have you ever had that problem?

MDJ. Loved it. How/what bar did you mount on your livewell lid for the culling tags? I have the same Cal Coast brand for my Ranger.

Wait where are you getting the water from if youre not in the lake?

I like Latimer's Hydrogen Peroxide and Vinegar method better🤣 But no disrespect. I just don't like bleach near my boat period. Love your channel.

If you want to get rid of all the soap suds after all cleaning is done, get you a bar of regular soap & lather it up in your live wells it will get rid of all of the soap suds, just run fresh water in livewwells You Are welcome You are welcome Bucky. Bass Wilson, NC 27893

also where did you get the Ranger stickers for the lids on your livewell?

Out of all the fire content you've got that you haven't uploaded yet, you start with this lol. I'm jk looking forward to all your content MDJ.

The problem with using hard bristles is it scratches your livewell. In the long run it creates more surfaces for dirt and grime to cling onto. A sponge brush would be better long term imo.
