How about drilling a couple holes thru the fridges side to run some plastic ice maker tubing thru. Make a large coil inside the fridge, then run a small circulator pump to cycle the water thru the coils. The little fridge could serve dual purpose for other bait, or your beer.:D
Some where in this forum I read where some one did that, only used copper tubing, worked well. use silicone to seal around the holes where the tubes go in and out.
