qdup Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 I've had trouble with bait in the livewell of my '19 Redfisher spilling over the top of the clear notch guard and jamming up all around the stand pipe. Anyone else had this issue or find a solution? Thinking about having a taller guard fabricated so the bait can't go over the top. Thoughts?

captpn Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Yup that's not good. Id cut a piece of plastic to fit that small area and 4200 it. Drill alot of good size holes in it. Leave enough of a space between it so you can still remove your clear cover. Maybe try it out for a day with some duct tape to make sure you dont overflow before the 4200. if overflowing i think id enlarge those 6 top holes in the clear cover and try it again. fun project good luck.

jh141 Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 http://clearviewbaitwellfilters.com Problem solved 8 years now. I can leave the clear cover or completly remove it. You could also copy Cams ideal if you are a DIYer. Cam is great to deal with and I have bought two of his solutions and they are awesome and easy.

jason p Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 ^^^THIS^^^ ... and don’t look back. I tried all kinds of things before I solved the problem, I didn’t know about the clear view filters. The problem with the DIY mentioned above is that you’ll also probably need to fill in the oval slots in the plate with sealant if you catch bait over grass. Once the grass, seaweed, etc... goes through the slots and clog the standpipe your well will overflow and you’ll have to pull the plate to un clog it.

captpn Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 but now he will have to drink beer without fabricating anything for the boat...what fun is that. Just kidding, that's a slick standpipe solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
