hand bilge pumps are better than battery operated ones. We know how often bait tanks and electronics crap out. But yes you can use a bait tank pump in an emergency in most situations.

My internal bait tank has worried me little since I got it. There have been zero problems so far in over a year and over 150 uses including dragging over cobbled beaches, dropping the kayak off the rack, dragging over the edge of a panga fully loaded, dropping a knife in it, having a treble hooked lure snag it and mothership racks not meant for kayaks. Still the plastic fix kit is a great idea.
