Hobie Bait Tank Vs. Thresher Tank. - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Hobie has done a great job on their tank engineering and component choices in my opinion.

My Hobie Tank : $250
Works every time out : Priceless

A postage stamp piece of screen carefully gooped onto the water intake work great to foil the eel grass. Pointing the intake backwards removes the simple pedal self-priming feature.

I built these by hand for years before I gave Hobie input to their new livewell system, and I could never get close to the solidness of their final product ...
