bait tank

Keeps minnows alive

A bait tank is a container on a fishing boat that keeps live bait—minnows, shrimp, or small fish—alive until needed.

The tank circulates aerated water to maintain oxygen levels: We loaded the bait tank with anchovies before heading offshore.

Some anglers install bait tanks in pickup trucks for transporting catch or bait between locations.
