How to modify a bait pump step by step

[@donovanphipps777]

Thanks for your detailed instructions bud, I just finished modifying my pump. It improved the suction a lot. I didn't have a welder so I used Pratley Steel to secure the handle. This video was a great help. Tested it on a bucket of water. Works great. 👍🤗.

[@MADAngling]

No problem, the silicone gets better the more you use the pump

[@herbmeister357]

I make silicon washers for my pump…I find it easier to mix some soap and water and squirt the silicon into the soapy water,then put my hands into the soapy water and mould the silicon into a ball(it will not stick to your hands👍)…then put a bit of soapy water on my glass and in my washer/gasket mould and press the amount of slicing I need into mould by hand and flatten off with a plastic trowel(and soapy water)…as well as preventing sticking and mess the soapy water also helps speed up curing of the silicon you can pop 22mm washers/gaskets out of the moulds in 3-4 hours and they’re usually fully cured and ready to use in 4-5 days👍 another tip that might help is get rid of the wing nut(they tend to turn and constantly adjust the suction each time they make contact with the sand) replace it with a nylon assisted lock nut👍 other than that great video👍👍👍

[@MADAngling]

Thanks for sharing ur way of making them... Will definitely give it a try x2 thumbs up

[@SAMMY12329]

Thanks that's a real help to me, would never thought of that. Made three, they take a long time to dry. Will install when ready Chris.

[@MADAngling]

It does take time to dry... Well worth it when ready.. Enjoy

🎣 i have an Alvey steel bait suction pump and a blue pvc plastic pump. I make my own washer systems to put in them which gives my pumps Much better suction power than what they had! No need to take the metal cap - lid off! It keeps the sand and water out. The water, sand and mud gets in Below my washers. I suck up some clean salt water when finished pumping and some fresh water at home to clean the inside of pipe! 🦐 🎣

[@EnduroDroneHub]

That bait pump is a beast! Where can I get that bait pump! Not just “a bait pump” THAT one 🙂🤷🏻‍♂️

Great content as usual...enjoy your videos sir, keep up the great work

[@shameerarendse280]

Mooi man boeta waanie.. been waiting long now for this video

[@bradparker6156]

A question I have regarding this modification: Is there any reason one may still want the top end to be sealed? (As unmodified) I cant see any..

[@MADAngling]

It's not necessary to have it on..does not help with suction

[@drevil4454]

Nice mod bruh. Now can you still pump prawn?

[@maxmuskat9863]

genius man!

[@sao68053]

I get the silicone washer part but what’s the point of the top end modification

[@MADAngling]

The removal of the top washer allows the pump to be used under water, so when u pump these no restriction the water flows quickly out

[@ahndeux]

@@MADAngling Yeah, but wouldn't drilling two large holes on the top cap serve the same purpose?

[@sadickvanderschyff1807]

Nice one Redewaan but we all can't mig like u can we braize

[@MADAngling]

Any weld will work, just needs to be secure

[@TheIncredibleMrG777]

Awesome video bud👍🏻👊🏻👊🏻

[@MADAngling]

Thanks for watching Gavin

[@robertaflint6589]

There is no need to take the cap off the top, all you need to do is drill a small 4-5mm hole just below we’re the handle pokes out, no need for welding, this hole can be used to lube your pump as well , I use a bottle from when the wife dyes her hair, the bottle has a nice point , ideal.

[@MADAngling]

Drilling holes will definitely work.. Main aim is to get the water quickly out... What kind of lube do you use Robert

[@robertaflint6589]

I just use good old fairy liquid.

[@robertaflint6589]

If the seal is good on your pump you shouldn't be getting any water in the top part of the pump, I have an original Alvey pump and never had a problem with water getting above the seal, except on purpose to flush and clean.

[@waynemorris5084]

[@jeromepetersen6584]

Great clip & very useful ( cheers jpet )

[@chrislaing1356]

Well done👍🏻👍🏻

[@AndrevanNiekerk-qg4dm]

V Thanks for the video. Just turn down background music, can hardly hear you

[@steveellis6090]

Why don't you form the center hole while it is still soft ?

[@MADAngling]

You can,will give it a try

[@alistairmacdonald6653]

Why don't you use a nyloc nut instead of the wing nut . Just take a spanner with you when you go after bait

[@MADAngling]

We do that yes...my 13 spanner stays in the worm bag

Drop me a email with ur contact number

[@asifisraelfishing]

Cool video.. will help

[@24ジャックバウアー]

素晴らしい😊👍

[@ahndeux]

Wouldn't it be easier to just drill a hole for the air and water to get out? Not many people have a TIG welder in their house.

[@MADAngling]

Definitely worth a try, try and get as much holes in as possible the less restriction the better

[@erniecrowley2603]

Why not let the silicone cure inside of the tube then just cut 20ml sections off it

[@MADAngling]

Would be difficult to cut it perfectly round. And the silicone tube is the right diameter

Hi

know you mean well, but with a poor mic, the background musak makes this unwatchable.
