Made a bait tank out of a Marine Cooler and copied the workings of the hobie bait tank using the scuppers for water intake and drain. I chose this cooler since it fits snug in the back of the Pro Angler and already had knotches I can put the bungie cords. I also rigged a stadium seat to the back and works perfect for passengers.

Noob Questions
Quote:
Quick noob questions: The black bulb inline to the inlet pipes. Is that so you can manually add water should the bilge pump not have power? The pipe over the top/side: does that have holes in the underside for the water to flow in? |

Its to prime the tank, instead of having to use forward propulsion to push water up the inlet under the scupper. |

Slap Shot Hockey Gaf
Making gafs for a couple friends...I use my broken composite /carbon fiber ice hockey sticks and they work awesome!! Grips are fantastic.
Nothing fancy just solid, light & functional... Some pics- Last edited by cabojohn; 09-07-2016 at 12:08 PM. |

I didn't make them...purchased from Hockey Giant / Hockey Monkey. They sell them for about $7. They are pre made. Glue on w/ hot water. Different colors, sizes & lengths. I'm sure you could use them on any gaff / shaft. Last edited by cabojohn; 02-13-2017 at 01:02 PM. |

Costco has offered nice quality stadium seats for the past couple of years for around $14. What you do with it depends on your own creativity and mechanical skills.

FWIW, they are awesome on bleachers, which is what they are made for. My bony butt on metal stands can only take so much, but a weekend-long waterpolo tournament is comfortable. |
