Subject: Baitwell pluged


I had a buddy of mine pick up bait today..he forgot the minnow bucket. So I put them in my baitwell in my Tuffy. I had the screen in there and all was fine....the screened plug came out during the day....now I have lots of minnows all the way to my pump and infact so many my baitwell wont even drain out. I flushed it with a hose from both ends, but only 5 minnows came out...

I am sure you walleye nuts have seen this or heard of this....Does anyone got a answer before I do the impossible and take my baitwell pump off way under the back deck.

Looking for advise!

You should be able to flush them from the outside in. I don't know if yours pumps out, or just drains. If it pumps out, maybe turn on the pump, chew em up, and spit them out? Otherwise, maybe a fish tape would help dislodge them?

Did Hintz forget the bicket?

Any progress? Is it starting to stink yet? Did you remember to remove the filter from you wet/dry vac, and clean out the dirt in the tank, before you sucked that chum water into the vac? I'll call you around lunchtime.
