Bait Tank for sale

[cell128]

Yeah u guys are right I didn't consider smaller bait getting through the elbow or getting stuck in it. I may just do the drain through holes then or make a screen for the elbow.. The overflow holes will be higher as you can see from the pic so it might work out good thanks for the input....sorry it's my first tank

I usually put about 4 to 5 holes depending on the rod holder location. Some want the 6 rod holder setup and some want the 3. So it all depends on where the Rod holders go, but there is plenty of drainage and I've never had a tank over flow on me doing it this way.

Glad he liked it. We'll have to hook up on the water sometime.

Is the omega tank a 40lb Vittel or a 60lb vittel? I currently have the 15lb like your smaller one and I was doing the math. The 15 lb is about 51 lbs with water in it. The 40 lb is about 119lbs with water in it. The 60lb is about 136lbs with water in it. How much of a difference would one notice with adding that weight to the yak? Just wondering if you would notice that weight. I'll probably still build one out of a 40lb vittel.

I Never thought about the weight. Mine is a L 12"x W 12"x H 9.75"=1404 cubic inches 1404 cubic inches / 231=6.08gal 6.08gal x 8.5Lbs =51.68lbs

231 is inches to gallons
8.5lbs is average weight of salt water.

I use the 40lb, I had a 60 at one time and it was O.K., but it was just too big for my taste. The only time I have ever notice the water weight is when water leaked into my kayaks but from other sources not the bait tanks. Usually when I'm paddling back into shore I pull the drain plug so that the water drains before landing. I also thing the weight of the water in the tank helped save me back in April when I was paddling in some very rough waters. Again, I honestly have not heard anyone complain about the extra weight.
