Will a siphon run water up from a hole to a cooler?
Bring a coffee can that will fit in a hole.
Hmmm how to get water from the lake to a cooler. If we have any rocket scientist on ice shanty please chime in now I can't figure this out. I was thinking maybe a small bucket?
Get a cheap 12v submersible pump. They don't draw much power and would keep the water moving and oxygenated. I wouldn't count on it surviving being removed from the lake and getting frozen, but they are under $30.

Fishing a catch and release tourney tomorrow. I have to transport fish 6 miles to weigh in, and thy have to be alive at weigh in. I plan on taking my old Coleman cooler and filling it up with water. What's an easy way to do this? Will a siphon run water up from a hole to a cooler? I'm thinking it because gravity, but, maybe I am wrong. Anyone have any ideas? I don't want t have to fill it up at home and then drag it out on a sled.
Home Depot sells a plastic hand pump in the plumbing section.Empty it out as best you can and it'll last awhile.It may freeze up after use but if you drain it properly you only need to dry/thaw it out for the next use.
I think I'll get one of these as a backup in case the batteries on my Atwood die. Bailing water for an hour is not an option.
Can with a stick, no back up needed, no battery, no hoses...It really is fast too. How big is this cooler?It doesn't take that much to keep them alive, mine come back from the dead frozen...Water is 8lbs a gallon ...<°)))>{
