    Default Engel live bait cooler


    How many dozen of medium-sized minnows does each size hold.
    Thanks

    I too can keep 12 dozen alive easily for 12-15 hours in my 30 quart. Sometimes longer if it is cold out. The Engle coolers are the best minnow keepers around. Expensive but worth it if you use a lot of minnows and they keep dying on you.

    I ran across this ditty but thought it would be too small - 8 qt. is only 2 gallons, right?

    Plus they're asking a pretty penny for an 8 qt. aeration cooler... My father-in-law made one himself back in the late 60's. He used that thing until he passed in the mid 90's but it was a more simple version. Were he still with us today I'd have to get him one of those big Engel live bait coolers. Those look sweet!

    I have just ordered a 30 QT for myself after seeing my brother-n-law's 30 QT and him telling me how good it is. He lost a pound of minnows one weekend and decided to buy the Engal 30 QT and he loves it and hasn't lost a minnow since.

    The only minnows I've lost in that cooler has been from poor quality of minnows, if u seen the minnows I got the other day they has scales missing fungus on em didn't think they would make it think I only lost 6 out of 10 doz . Definatly the best bait cooler by far , I kept over a pound for a week or better in there before I started to lose any at all
    Thanks KyBruce thanked you for this post
