Mounting for FF and Bait Tank! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Lord Matthew34 · 03-10-2010, 08:26 PM

I mounted my FF in the front of my yak and obviously the bank tank in the back. The bait tank wires run through the kayak to a switch mounted up near the FF. Then I spliced the wires from the FF and the bait tank into a dry box where I have 1 12volt battery to power them both. I dont do a lot of live bait fishing (mainly because I enjoy fishing plastics and cranks in the bay) but i've got the option and I think the capacity to pretty much run both at the same time for extended periods of time. I'm also going to run an inline fuse to the FF wire, because if this does cause me to blow a circuit i'd rather the fuse go out, then the FF.

Hide your wires on the inside of the yak, and use zip ties to keep them singularly and out of the way.
