    Default Livewell divider?


    Tryin to figure out what to use. This boat has two huge livewells and there are grooves to put 2 dividers in each livewell. What would you guys use? I thought about some old campaign signs and cut some fair size holes in them, but dont know if that would work or not. I am sure some of you guys have constructed something.

    Hmmm i may try that, what size holes would you put in it? Several small holes or a few large 1-1/2 holes

    You might try HDPE (High Density Polyethelyne), the stuff cutting boards are made of. I have pieces as this as 1/16" and as thick as 3/4". The 1/16" with 8-10 3/4" holes spresd out should do the trick.

    Use small holes. They also help keep water from sloshing back and forth.

    I made one out of a plastic cutting board from wal-mart. Drilled some 1" holes in it. Works great

    What if you put 1/8" holes lots of them and now you also have a baitwell. Or even 1/4" holes. just small enough for the minnows to stay where they are at.
