This reminds me a friend of mine who came up with a zero power bait tank for his skiff.

Since he was always slow trolling he surmised that if he had a forward facing intake with a one way valve that as he trolled at say 3 knots water would be pushed through the valve and fill the tank.

In actual use when running at 20 knots the tank filled fine, but at 3 knots it only filled to about four inches.

Ha! great! that was gonna be my next question.

Well i did see a post here:

this logic is interesting, but is it just one guys opinion or is this real? can you just add oxygen from a tank to the water with an air stone? and not need to circulate water? Or does this work on fresh water bait only?
