Thread: Bait Tank

I do not have one but checked it out on the Internet and it seems to be legit. Has some great reviews performance for the price wise. Sounds very interesting.

I think I saw one of these tanks Monday at Lake Hartwell Fishing and Marine at Portman Shoals. Round, roto molded. Pump sits in with the bait. The one I saw was in the $350-400 range. Looked to be about 20 gal. Not a bad looking tank. May be a good tank for boats with limited floor space, it did have a small footprint. However, I have used all kinds of bait tanks: vest, master flow, gray line, home made, etc. My preference is still the Vest (ie, Super Bait Tank). The 30 gal vest I bought in 1998 is still going strong and has outlasted several boats. The Vest tanks are also made locally in Easley.

That tank seems to be a decent looking tank. I have a tank like that I use when I'm "not" striper fishing. I've used all the tanks and the Ron vest tanks are the best in my opinion. If I a m striper fishing in my 16' boat I have a creek bank 30 gal that I use. It has a smaller footprint than the vest 30 but doesn't keep the bait as well. Sometimes there is a trade off. If you have the space and money go with the vest tank. If u are short on space and don't mind spending $350 for a tank find a creek bank. If ur short on space and cash get the other tank. Vest tank you can past down to the kids.

I have one and have no problems. I use it every weekend.

Love my Vest tank, if you are crappie fishing with real small minnows you will need a screen over the water intake or they will wind up in the filter. One trip we had some crappie minnows with the shiners and I found them in the filter.
Creek Bank went out of business I would guess the were too much like the Vest tank

I have a 30 gal keepalive for sale if interested.

Don't mean to hijack this post, but what about the best tank for around 10 dz minnows.

Not sure, but I put 8 dozen in a 18 pack cooler 4 days ago with some of the blue bait alive and have lost only 3 minnows, but its been cold. Hot weather splits the men from the boys.
