cheap bait basket

GregBR549 · 03-14-2010, 07:56 PM

I thought this was a good idea. It may have been on here before, but I couldn't find it. We hang it off our pier to keep bait over night. We are also planning on using it when bottom fishing to help keep the bait better than leaving them in our small live well.

Just a $10 collapsible laundry basket from Walmart. I added a drain hole and zip tied the noodles on.

Just wait till a nice Bull shark cruises by the wreck and sees your snack. Happened to me a couple years ago with a similar contraption. Just don't secure to the boat with something to stout. I lost a kleet.
