LIVEWELLS
Livewells are designed to help protect and keep fish or bait alive. Some are
equipped with an aeration pump that circulates and refills the water in the livewell
to help keep fish alive.
Always clean and empty the livewells after each use to prevent contaminating the
fish. Never use soap, detergents or other cleaners that may be harmful to fish to
clean the livewell.
If a livewell system does not drain completely, you may have to bail remaining water
by hand or remove your boat from the water.
To avoid freeze damage to the livewell system, be sure it is
completely empty in freezing weather. Residual water in the system may freeze and
cause damage.
Livewell systems are usually manual, remote or recirculating. Do not use manual
and remote livewell systems while your boat is in operation or on the trailer. Also,
make sure the livewell pump is switched off, or pump damage will occur.
