Ken - where did you buy that live well pump with the threaded fitting? Great job on the homemade livewell!
Bill,
I got mine locally at Gander Mountain. They had very similar ones at Wal-Mart. I used a 750 GPH pump, and I think it was about $30. Besides having a standard pipe fitting, the other nice thing about these pumps is that the actual pump mechanism is easily replaceable and inexpensive. Two years ago I had a different kind of pump that quit half-way home with a load of trout. I had to keep stopping every few miles and giving the fish artificial respiration. I now carry a spare.
Also, this particular cooler has a ridge all around the top, and the PVC sits on top of it. When I need to use the cooler for a picnic or to haul some venison, all I have to do is lift the aerator out.
