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

I gave the 30 quart and it will keep 12 doz large minners alive no problem.
I think they have those on sale at Mack s Prairie Wings in Stuttgart.
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 got the 30qt and we've had 106 heat index and I can keep 12 doz easy in mine to med size minnows . In spring I've jept 1.5 lbs of minnows Alive for just bout a week .. Def a great investment
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
Just received my cooler in the mail and looking forward to using it. I got the 13 qt so I can use it in the boat and kayak.
On sale now can cabelas $ 15 off each size!!
