Bottle of Marine Goop
10' rope to tie off
I gooped the back end shut.
Used a drill bit to make holes through the other end and shower grate together, so I can run a slipknot through the holes to open and close bait bullet.
It works great, my bait stayed plenty active for hours in there. and not too much drag since the shower grates are flush with pipe.
Can anyone share their ideas on how to make a sliding door? Would be much easier to grab a bait.

Suggest drilling holes along the tube to allow water in and out faster - haven't done tests if that increases drag or not.
