Re: Another Toy
On alot of the newer boats have some pretty good sized live wells, 35 gallons seems pretty common these days. The one on my boat is around 14 gallons. Up in Wisconsin, there is viral hemorrhagic septicemia disease in Lake Michigan, Wisconsin waterways connected to Lake Michigan and the Great Lakes. To prevent VHS disease from spreading into other Wisconsin waters, it is illegal for anglers to transfer or transport live fish (bait or catch) from lake to lake. Basically all bait buckets, live wells, and buldges have to be drained on the boat ramp. The laws for noncompliance are harsh and so far the measures seem to be working as no new VHS disease outbreaks where identified for 2008 even with all the flooding.
