7 gallon bucket
« on: Nov 25, 2008, 12:21 AM »
Anyone know where I can purchase a plain seven gallon bucket? I want to sit up a little higher but when I find anything over 5 gallons it is a bait bucket or something more than just a bucket.

Our chlorine tablets for our pool came in a 7 gallon bucket. The lid has a seal and screws on, I use them for trapping. Check around with someone with a pool???

If you know anyone that keeps a saltwater aquarium, ask them. The salt for mixing usually comes in 7 gallon buckets.

i have a few 6 gallon buckets but never heard of a 7 gallon bucket.  Maybe mine are 7 gallon and I just didn't know it.
Fisherman's Prayer
   I pray that I may live to fish
          Until my dying day.
And when it comes to my last cast,
       I then most humbly pray:
When in the Lord's great landing net
           And peacefully asleep,
      That in His mercy I be Judged
              BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP.

Went for coffee with my buds this morning and the manager of the cafe gave us two more pickle buckets.
