Hey man those degrees aren’t useless. They’ve helped you get to where you are today. Even if what you’ve learned is not applicable, at least they’ve taught you what you what you don’t want to pursue! You’ll reach 100k! Keep it up!

[@GregHastings]

I think I will try this, but make it work with all the parts mounted to the underside of the lid. Run the power out the top.

[@shanepeter1616]

That is a great budget friendly livewell. Wouldn't be hard to add another smaller cooler beside it to recirculate the water through ice to keep the water temp cool. Great video.

[@superb9151]

That’s what I was thinking too. That would be perfect .

[@caribbeanbound8357]

why not keep the water at the same temp as the environment the fish came from?

[@sgib199]

@@caribbeanbound8357because when it is hot, the water on the boat will become much hotter than the water in the lake. Because there is so much less volume.

[@ship4427]

It's be cool to do a challenge where you use basic tools and materials that most of us would have and do a simple little 12ft bassboat.

[@ship4427]

I think I worded it wrong. I don't expect you to lower your standard on the boat. There's a clear gap between you and most of the other people converting small boats. I think over 90 percent of people who will convert a John boat will probably only do it once and with the weekend warrior tools and skills that most of us have. I just think it'd be interesting seeing how someone with your skill set would attack it in an average joes garage. Plus showing people they could do it with what they have would probably jump your subscribers substantially. Your work can be intimidating for some people to try if their only gonna do it once. Thanx for spreading knowledge all the same and look forward to your future projects.

[@BubbavilleBassin]

What's the size of the cooler. I want to have a big enough cooler but not too big size to take up space.

[@michaelgreene]

Question. Any reason why you didn't put everything on the back side of the cooler. Seems to me it would be more out of the way in back. Just asking.

[@TinyBoatNation]

It was just a quick project. You can make it however you like.

[@troydevormer7467]

Tried this many years ago . All that shit hanging on the outside just gets broke off in a few trips . Keep pumps inside cooler.

[@mattaneshansley5349]

Or if you are going to run it outside use the flowright quick disconnects so you can pop all crap off when you move it.

[@ermannodibenedetto3064]

I have a 1988 Searay 250 with a cooler (and an exterior drain) at the stern of my boat. My thought here would be to find a rubber stopper for the drain and mount this kit under the cooler (in hull cavity), run a wire to a switch and fill cooler with water. Any additional thoughts on this adaptation?

[@freshsaltyfries5078]

Nice build how much would the weight be for kayak to be on? Make something similar for my hobie lynx

awesome for a simple jon boat

[@jerryrupiper8023]

great build, just one safety comment your fuse should be installed close to the battery, on your setup the fuse location allows a short to occur at any point from the battery positive terminal thru the length of your cable up to the fuse, this is a fire hazard on your boat or in your vehicle .

[@JayDee-ig3fy]

[@nicholaswilliams5587]

Why not use a submersible pump and mount it inside the cooler and have it circulate all inside and just have a plug mounted u can plug a battery in to power it, would be just like a cooler from the outside with a plug mounted on it only.

[@TinyBoatNation]

That is also an option just messy

[@mattaneshansley5349]

Sweet setup! Pump out is cool, but no pump in? What if you use a flowright nossel for the intake into the pump, so when you pull the nossel out the water pumps in from another hose on a quick connect that you throw overboard? This would also help you streamline the pump right against the cooler. Just a thought.

[@mdbassin9120]

turn the nozzle and its shoots out the top. Once enough water is out dump it over the side.

[@darrellwampler6473]

Just use a bucket and bail the water in. You should keep a bucket in the boat anyway👍

Hey how could I modify this so the water also pumps out but still only using one pump

[@sharsphootervideos]

I was thinking about the same thing and I think using gravity will do the job. I'd put the pump a bit lower then a pipe running out higher. When the water hits that line it would naturally flow out. Not sure this would work but worth a try.

[@alastairsellars2611]

[@frankc6430]

I made one with a small recirculating sum pump or a fountain pump ,perforated pvc pipe shots water downwards and aerates it at the same time , only 2 tiny holes to hold pump under and few above water line to hold pvc around all contained inside, the only thing out of the cooler is 2 wires for power... credit to another ytuber for the idea.

[@adviennedomingo]

could I purchase thing to Canada?

[@DESERTSTATELINEANGLERS]

Hell yeah bro badass

[@allenbrian72]

Ok it’s nice but since you went with a aerator pump like that I would have but the pump on the back side n in a up right position to make it not stick out n run the shower head on the front Also I know this is a year old video n I’m sure you may have found out this. When the pump quits working cause it’s worn out n you used the epoxy it’s going to make it hard to replace the pump and getting it out may damage the ice chest cooler That’s why I use a bilge pump in mine no leaks no problem to replace pumps and works just as good.

[@boatingman11]

Just how does this work? I don't see any aeration to this system, at all. It seems the only thing this does is recirculate the water. Without adding oxygen, this is useless.

[@holdemhooksfishing2117]

Moving water creates oxygen..

[@KefirTView]

I admire the creativity you incorporated into this build and the time you took to shoot the video. But if we're going to keep it "real" for everyone watching, this set-up IF mounted to a personal watercraft or small boat won't work as needed; nothing to do with the build itself, but all the movement and sloshing stresses out the bait fish and within ONE hour, they'll all be either dead or taking their last breaths as they float inactive at the surface of the cooler waterline.

[@tenkarausa5294]

Yeah thats my thought for my 17ft gregor, what do you think is the best way to keep em live under the stress of bouncing around when running offshore

[@at_tro_sizematters]

Hey I have an unrelated question, I was given a 14' "Buddy Boat" jon boat. Id like to convert it over to a better fishing rig, and Ive watched all of your builds. But I have a question, what areas do I need to measure to make sure this boat is suitable. I dont think its a 14'x48" I would just like to know before I spend the time and money on the build

[@TinyBoatNation]

Bottom beam width

[@joshfaria6706]

Don’t think I got a fuse in my kit

[@TinyBoatNation]

Oh, we don't provide that initially. We could, but it's cheaper for you to get it on Amazon.

[@skunkedagain]

really good content. I'd say less camera movement, and not so zoomed in would make it perfect.

[@antfish109]

The kit you send out isn't the same as this video, the top aerator piece you send isn't even long enough to go thru the cooler wall

[@mycatmycat3786]

Don’t like at all to much stuff outside the cooler they make a cooler kit submerge the pump stick on hose and pvc pipe sticks on with suction cups two wire coming out of the cooler to a 10 ahr Velcro to the back of cooler if one chooses to. No wholes to drill ,when done fishing my fish go into the cooler. The cooler is still useable. Walmart

[@FishingwithMiguel]

How many fish would you say fit in that specific cooler? And stay alive of course ? I'm just curious because I have the same cooler and always found it a bit on the small side

[@randomconsumer4494]

With a little more planning you wouldn't have to cut anything other than a couple of holes... You didn't measure twice.

[@mulespur4806]

A fun fact you really don’t have to be that far down with the recirculating pump, so can get a more flat spot to mount the pump if not using it pumping out.

[@gabeval9350]

I skipped ahead 2min and I saw that ice chest. No one buy that ice chest! Especially for this application. The handles aren't attached to the outer mold of the chest, instead it's molded to the inner layer with only an over lap of about 3/8-1/2". So when the sun constantly hits that part where the handles are molded in, along with the added weight of it being full the handles will break right off. Do yourself a favor and get the ice chest with replaceable handles.

[@tongvang724]

Dude said he will make something simple, but then proceeds to take out a million parts.

[@pancakeface5717]

Cool. I'm trying to figure out how to make one that draws water in from the outside and expels it out for crabbing. Were you doing some of your work in the kitchen? If so, I'm guessing you have a very agreeable spouse/partner or you're single, lol.

[@DWeezy62]

I've made several bait tanks from coolers. The one that I use most is one I made from a 10-gallon Igloo water cooler. It takes up less foot space, and the round sides keep the bait from red-nosing. A screened fresh air intake above the waterline would help that setup by allowing fresh air to enter the bait tank and reduce ammonia buildup in the tank. I'm not trying to hijack your video. I'm just trying to give some helpful suggestions. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIG6mHSQadCZitU

[@wazup3333]

Hey I always wondered what caused my mullet to get red noses, what's the cause? Lack of aeration, too much aeration? The bait are in a round bucket. Too many in one bucket?
