My first bait tank build - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Finally got the green monster totally fishable with the completion of my bait tank. Thank you Andy at OEX Sunset beach for your time insight.

Decided to make a huge leap and go straight for the through hull system and here is how she turned out.

Standard 3.6gallon petfood container

90° angled pvc elbow

Another shot of the inside. Nozzle angled down at a 45° to slow down the current a bit.

Here is the 500gpr tsunami pump installed. I used marine goop on all seals then reinforce the pump with jb weld For added strength.

Heres the hose running back to the tankwell.

Another fitting in the tankwell leading to the intake on the tank

Should work well. Ill try it on tuesday. Havent put anything into electrical yet. Ill have a deck mounted rocker switch installed soon.
