Thread: Any one tried this livewell pump out???

I bought a 10' price of reinforced 3/4" hose to use for now. I think it will be more useful that way. I can fill weighin cooler beside the boat or on the back deck. May also be able to use it to fill the 120qt cooler on the front deck when spider rigging. I got it all hooked up today and will give it a try this weekend. I did see a "Y" today at Westlakes that had a **** off valve on each line. That may work if I decide to run it out that back. But for now I think the hose will be more useful.

The Y with a shut off would work if ya go that way

I got to put it to use on Saturday to fill the weigh in cooler. Worked real well and I like being able to fill the cooler with it on the deck of the boat. Makes it easier to cull fish with it up there.

Great! Glad it worked good.

yup, got it in my ranger. awesome.

i also have it on my stratus, and i also just have a tube running from the output side of the fitting and I leave it in my bilge area. Couldn't bring myself to cut a hole in the boat for something i use 4-5 times a year. if i could catch more fish maybe i'll get around to drilling the output hole and mounting it permanent

Leave your hose long and you can pretty much fill any bag/bucket up.
