Torpedo Bait Bucket??? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have to agree ^, it has zero drag and can keep mackerel alive for hours. On my last trip it kept 6 Spanish macks alive for 9 hours. Only issue you will have with tow-style bait tanks is the rope/cord you attach it to will tangle with fins, rudders, transducer mounts, etc. Keep that in mind when you decide the length of the rope. It has the least drag when directly behind your kayak but also is more likely to tangle. If you are drifting around, I would recommend tying it in closer to the side of your yak.
