buckhorn250 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I decided this year to set up an aquarium to keep minnows at the cottage over a fishing week. Set up a 15 gallon aquarium with filters and airators. Everything was great until I got the minnows...man they stink ! I've had fish in the past, but wow, nothing smelt that bad...anyone have similar experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solopaddler Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Go to Home Depot buy some fine wire mesh and build a cage. Keep them in the lake beside the dock, that's what most do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizzo Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 nope, I put them in one of those wire mesh minnow traps and set them on bottom in 8 feet of water the odd time I have used live bait. If you're worried about them getting out then plug up the 2 holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
