    I built a bait tank out of a tote. I am now having trouble keeping it clear. Its looks like PEA SOUP. Any ideas how to correct this?

    The only thing that comes to mind is if it's getting a lot of sun and/or you don't have a UV filter it's probably algae

    Hey might be a stupid question I have similar setup and it is hard to net all the shad because I got a 550 gallon tank and there going crazy.. do you just net them or do you have any tips or tricks to get them all out

    How do you keep the water cool enough for them to survive in summer?

  • @skunkofftackle
    @skunkofftackle2 ай бұрын

    I have not added any cooling. But I also do not keep much bait in the dead of summer. Otherwise it seems with it being shaded and sitting on concrete that it stays cool enough when i use it

  • @skunkofftackle
    @skunkofftackle3 ай бұрын

    Id say a month or so. Things are definitely a lot harder in the warmer weather. Like I do not load it down as much. Try to just get enough for a couple of trips. The fact that my tank sits directly on concrete and adding the insulation seemed to help a lot as it stays fairly cool even without a chiller.

    Experience, trial and error, but with the rigs we are using,we have found as mentioned earlier in the video that 75 feet back is 4 to 5 feet below the downrigger ball hope this helps

    1 thing I'd suggest is slow down the current. Current makes bait have to swim non stop and takes it toll on them. You will have more dead bait or weak bait seeing as they need to swim 24 hours a day

    @skunkofftackle Жыл бұрын

    I have not tried it. I considered it but with the lake being close it's really easy for me to top off. I do not put salt in my tank because I keep bluegill and trout sometimes and they seem to be sensitive to the salt.

    That is incorrect. Clear boards have the foam only on one side which makes them want to flop over at low speeds and until they are far enough away from the boat to grab. All planer boards are similar.

    I talk about it in Part 1. It's a thumper. Basically, a rubber mallet with an electric motor that picks it up and drops it at whatever speed you set it to. Do not ask me why fish come to it but they do. Plenty of videos on KZread of how to make your own as well as a few companies that make them pre-built. As far as pre-built I recommend thumponator.com/ . I have no relationship with them at all but the features, price and quality I can not recommend another.
