Only thing id change is having the straining tube going to the rear and not the side. I know the side was more convenient but it will be easier ti damage it having it in the side plus it will add more drag.

Yet another awesome video! Are you going to use a stick steer? Seems like you'll be sitting on the live well lid to man your tiller.

@BassBrothersFishingDMV Жыл бұрын

Thanks. No stick steer. The livewell lid will be strong enough to sit on while driving the boat.

@travisfuller6590 Жыл бұрын

Great video only thing i would be worried about would be that the pump arerator would be to strong for the tub you are using pumping to much oxygen in the water result killing the fish

You know if you installed a flow rite valve you could eliminate one pump.. one pump with a 3 way flow rite valve would let you pump water in , then recirculate , or automatically recirculate and keep adding fresh water.. and gravity drain

True.

Does the pump need a switch to control off and on. Or does pump have a power switch.

Livewell pumps need a switch to turn them on and off.

Could you have used a cooler for the live well? This way you have a build in lid for it.

You could but would have to figure out how to integrate the existing cooler lid into your hatch.

The livewell has a pump out the side of the boat and any remaining water drains our the bottom out the back plug.
