Just thought I'd share my version (I got this idea from another post on this site) an thought it was a great idea so I made one CHEAP! I got a 600gph bilge pump from wallyworld and about 5ft of 3/4 nylon tubing. The rest I had laying around like the self-sticking zip tie anchors that I used to secure the air/return tube. I'm not sure how long these pumps last but I guess I will find out tomorrow. I used some high grade silicone to seal the electrical connections. I just attach it to a spare motorcycle battery so it don't drain my main battery an its still lite enough to lift if need be. I already had the cooler layin around so I got about 20$ in it minus the battery (it was an old spare for my bike). Gonna fill it with shad and creek chub from my top secret bait hole, so I can go huntin bluecat in the afternoon! Good Luck All and happy hunting!
