MarshCappa,

What size tank are you thinking of or can you fit and where in your boat would it fit best in the back or front?

I think the best part of this thread is that knowing you don't have to break the bank to keep bait alive. A livewell trash can type doesn't have to stay on the boat all year. Once the macs are gone and if you don't hunt down some pogies you can throw it in the truck.

Van, I really would love an oval tank. I want a fifty Gallon but the only 50's I see are round so I stayed with my rubbermaid.

I think my washdown pump now that I think of it is not 1100gph but 3000 something, quite the flow. Not something I like to run too long without the engine going.

Mr. Hunters. Boy there are allot of ways to troll Macs and hook them. If you want to be sporty just a single 7-8/0 threw the nose. Some like the circle hooks. Sometimes a harness rig with a single thru the nose and a treble near the tail using heavy mono. Or if you really don't want to miss a treble in the nose and tail. Weighted heavy or not weighted. It's all good and just takes practice when to set the hook depending on the type of rig your fishing with. If you want your trophy, 40/50 maybe 60 pounder, if you live on the South Shore it is during mac season. Can't wait.......
