OEX baitank
This is an OEX baittank on the back of my outfitter. I tried to fill it up while fishing CDM but quickly found out when we stopped moving that you can't fill it up all the way or you'll sink!!
![]() ![]() I have to regulate the waterlevel to about 3 inches to still be safe. If you put it up front while going solo, you should have no problem. When not being used as a baittank, it makes a great storage bin and of course a rod holder for 8 rods.

I just drilled a hole in the side and added pvc plumbing and a vinyl hose for the scupper. You can build a tank with a pump inside, but placing the pump in the water negates the priming of the pump issue. It's small enough to where I don't notice it. |
