Got these thinking they were the slightly larger Panfish floats kzfaq.infoUgkx_rJB7cli5f1ofPVGgn80S7Yj4vqwq0gU they work just fine. The smaller size lets me carry more in my tackle box, and the 3 color choices are nice for different lighting conditions, backgrounds, etc. They aren't the most durable things in the world. But, as cheap as they are, it's not heartbreaking to lose one or have to replace a worn one. The price on these fluctuates wildly, from about $9 to almost $16. So, time your buy accordingly.

I fish weekly Thursday night tourneys from my kayak against bass boats. This is exactly what i need! Thanknyou!!!

Great idea Ben! Love it!

Using this as a bait well in a couple weeks down in Florida. Great idea!

Pretty neat idea. You are always thinking.

God this is the smartest thing I have ever flipping seen man I needed this idea so bad

A good idea, thanks for sharing.

Brilliant. Cheap, and it works.

pretty nifty "noodlin' " equipment! : )

Easy button. the white one cost me 3 bucks. pool noodle, zip ties package and the laundry bag each $1.00 at the dollar store. Great idea, glad someone else had the same idea so I could prove my boyfriend that I wasn't crazy. Thanks for the vid. good ideas.

That is an excellent idea. I used PVC pipe being sealed it on the top circle. I later added a cage to keep the netting from collapsing on the fish.

Brilliant, looks like it holds more fish than the manufactured ones baskets.

I'm a kayak fisher and this is great idea for me.. nice job

Love it! Great idea! Thanks!

Very cool idea bro

Sweet!!! I will be using this method for my kayak

This is smart! Thanks for the idea

thanks...i got mine ready to go..

Absolutely fantastic!

I made mine out of pvc piping and a draw strong laundry bag, but you will need about a 2-3 lb weight zip ties to the center bottom to keep the live well from flipping over

VERY VERY NICE !!!

Onion sacks work too. I made one early this summer. Handy in the yak.

Brilliant! Thank you Sir

the crappie wont tear it up. me and my boyfriend are in a debate over this. PS you can also get drawstring bags at dollar tree and pool noodles too. you could make 3 of them for under $10. I think I may run to the dollar tree tonight and get a couple of both and try this. THANK YOU!!

Love the 2nd one 👍🥃🇺🇸

Some things to keep in mind for this is that you need some form of structure so the fish can move around and stay upright, when you are moving, these both will float up to the surface and entangle and trap the fish, killing it. Make sure if you use the bag, to add some wire hanger strucure to make it rigid as well as some form of heavy weight on the bottom to keep it fully submerged in the water. Another thing to keep in mind is that the mesh bags and cloth will become EXTREMELY SMELLY. Which is why i opted for a complete metal livwell.

One of the private lakes I fish is overpopulated with crappie and bass so we are catching as many as possible and transporting them to another lake that needs restocking.

Everytime I've tried these nets they break so easily. What you need to use instead is a divers XL goody bag!

very cool

These work fine as long as they remain stationary with no wind and current on them. Making them DIY is better than buying them from Promar. Promar has had them for years. Don't try to use these from a float tube or kayak! Goes without saying, but thought I'd say it anyway. Great video. Thanks 👍

Let's see it in use

Good idea

Tried floating live wells, tried stringers, don’t like either. I switched to a cooler with battery powered aerator for my kayak. Wish I wouldn’t have wasted my time trying all the other in-the-water options.

you better copyright this or Berkley will be selling these for 30 bucks next season.

Great idea 💡 I wonder if it'll work for holding catfish from the side of a kayak

Has anyone entered a boat bass tournament using this idea to weigh your fish? This question is specifically for kayak anglers.

Nice

maybe play for tennessee ernie ford, that be a hoot

When u use those to keep them alive, how to u kill them to eat them?

Thanks!

When the boat is moving do I need to bring the live well into the boat or do I just let it drag behind the boar?

cool idea 👍👍👍

Will this work well for tournament fishing and culling bass?

Good for diving for seafood

Can you glue a Plano box to the foam

How do you keep the turtle off your catch? They have ruined my steel fish baskets on two occasions.

Could you pull it behind a kayak?

just mix them and bangg.

could u use wire mesh for the catfish?

great idea. do you think this will work on the back of the boat going 20-30mph?

The black stand-up one did not work as well as the bag. I've used the white one many times and the close-able top makes a big difference..

Great diy projects. I made the white one. wasn't so good for trout keeping. I think the mesh interfered with oxygenation or stressed them out too much. Dead in 30 mins.

Great idea. Thank you for the video, I'm going to give it a try. I subscribed, please consider as well. Thank you for livewell idea. Have a great day. -Scott

I tried this over the weekend fished my first bass tournament in my kayak and was very disappointed waste of time cause it didn't even keep the fish alive an hour maybe 20 min and paddling was a pain felt like I had a parachute behind me the whole time couldn't get anywhere pulling it behind me

I have a problem when putting something like that in the water where I fish I have to deal with snapping turtles they tear holes in wire baskets

If I wanted to use this in salt water off of a pier, how would I lower and raise it? Is there a way to rig it?

so this is for catch fish?

That sucks
