Looking for comments on the engal, frabil bait buckets. I have built in ones and they over flow, no big problem but when alone don't want minnows in front, me in back.
Have minnow bucket with pump in it and messes up the piece and guiet.
Any better ideas
Attachment 374640. They also make a 110volt version that can be ran on a inverter. These can be mounted below deck or in a compartment to muffle the noise. I have the Magellan Bait cooler ( Academy Sports House brand). I like it much better than a bait bucket
Fuzz, these are the best I have ever used. PERIOD>https://www.amazon.com/ENGEL-Live-Co.../dp/B07YYY2KCGQuote:

i use 2 6 pack coolers one in front and one in back for fishing partner if i have one .
Frabill makes a 30qt. I made my own. With a 30qt I don't have to run air pump while fishing and keeps minnows alive for weeks. Attachment 374777Attachment 374778
I have an engle i use but initally bought it for shrimp when fishing on coast. It works very well.. The cooler bamahound made looks good and should work as well as anything you can possibly buy.
I have an engel and its awesome.. It will keep minnows alive for several days, even in the heat of the summer
Engels are excellent. Got two of em. 1 for front and one in back
I use the 8 quart frabill min-o-life, very compact1
Fuzzy, any of the cooler style bait buckets will work. I use the 12 volt one above. Just mounted it in the back of my boat under the lid. Put a on off switch inline. Ran the two lines into one. Fed the air line up to the front of my boat . All is hidden except for 12" of air line. Then I hook the one up from the bait bucket to it. I cant hear it at all. Only way I know it's working is bubbles in the bucket.
