Ice Well

[MN BassFisher]

From doing some reading on here I've heard people say they use them. I saw them this fall and thought it was a great idea! I guess I'd just like to hear some people's feedback. The only things somewhat bad I've heard is that sometimes the fins get stuck in the mesh and to wash it out after a few washes or it starts to smell a bit. I like to clean live fish and I like keeping my fish alive in case the bite slows down or the school moves and I'm left with 2 crappies or sunnies. Then I can throw them right back!

I love mine it works great hangs in the fishouse all the time never noticed any smell.

I use to use mine alot and seem to never use it anymore.

It did keep my fish alive while I was fishing but they froze on the way home.

I use it, works well, fish will get hung up occationaly but not bad. Need to check couple times a day, will stick (freeze) to side of hole a little.

All in all I like it.

A stringer with individual hooks works great

I think I'm going to be swinging by Thorne Bro's tomorrow evening so we'll see if I can bite the $20 bullet.

I have the 8in Ice Well and use it quite a bit. Like Minnow said, you have to make sure you check on it periodically to make sure it is not getting frozen in. Bad news if it does as you will likely have a tear or two. As far as getting the fins stuck, yeah it does happen from time to time. You may want to think twice before putting any wide bodied fish (crappies) in it.

I just place or dump into a 5 gallon bucket inside the truck, keeps them mostly thawed on the way home. Love my ice well, hate cleaning frozen. I have a 10" and use it in either 8" or 10" hole.
