Anybody else Trappin?

I went out a couple of times trapping minnows for soft water and managed to pick up about 10 dozen baby suckers last time out. I have learned my lesson and no longer keep chubs in the tank, as they eat all my smaller minnows.
I now have plenty of bait for the May opening walleye season, but wanted to keep my tank running to save a few bucks on bait.

I am currently looking for another (maybe bigger) tank that still works.

Them Chubs are Wicked Cannibals, sometimes they even turn on each other ! I was able to track down a chest freezer about the same size as yours Rick, now I'm getting all the fittings and spray bar parts together. Nice little summer project.

i went to a few spots, and got nothing... . still trying
a fellow fisherman, well known in these parts as... LAKER-TAKER....gave me a nice stainless steel tank with a release valve in the bottom. its about  3' deep.
should hold alot of suckers when i get into trapping them..

Did a water change on Sunday, Minnows had sores on there noses. I dont know if its from banging there heads on the tank when they get startled or what?
Any ideas? 

Never mind Reb! I already know what your thinking!
