How to build a bait tank for your garage. DIY

I like how it’s straight to the point, you didn’t try to over think this, simple and it works👍🏻

Great video! One thing I would add is a cinder block with the holes horizontal so the minnows have a place to hide and cut down on stress.

Thanks for the diy video man. I was looking for something simple like this to keep shiners in. Ice fishing season is just kicking off in new Hampshire 🤘

Love your videos

Like it . Great job you did.

I’m really thinking of doing this for next season

Love the simplicity of this build. I’ve had some Fathead minnows alive for 3 weeks now in just a 5 gal bucket with a aerator (Jan 7 thru 26-2023 Florida weather), Well water, and a little bit of bread crumbs. Kinda worried about keeping the water cool in the heat in my shed but I have some frozen water bottles ready 😂. I guess that’s about all I can do with such a small setup but does anyone know of another way….that’s portable to keep the water temperature cool enough to survive per say 103° heat?😢

I build my own aerators from simple materials. I get a cheap 12v bilge pump. Take a eight inch square of one inch thick styrofoam. Cut a circle out of the center of the foam that is just large enough for the intake of the pump to fit in. Tie rap the pump to the foam. Place it in the tank with the pump being fed by a battery or 12v transformer. It will practically foam the water with air. Decades ago most bait camps had large troughs for bait and had large aerators that hung down in the tanks. This works nearly as well and shouldn't cost more than $30 to build. I should mention it floats upside down intaking air from above and blowing water and air out under the foam.

Nice build

That is cool man!

Awesome Vid Thx Dude!

Interesting to see what someone has thought of. See some things that I might consider.

I like it. I cut my drum horizontally and made a cradle. using the same stuff from Walmart.  I am in Texas keeping mud minnows (salt water) alive. works great. I transport the water home in my boat live well. only problem is catching them they are fast. I do have a lid they will jump out.

Great video mane. going to make one
