I am looking at bait tanks and so far these seem to be the best. Anybody use these or have any other recommendations?

I looked at the greyline but for some reason I keep going back to the BlueWater. I like there filteration system better I think.

Everyone I know use's a greyline. Me included! All the tournament guys use them but the big seller for me was that all the guides use them also. They have to have healthy bait to put fish in the boat and food on their table!
it's the crapy days that make the good days that much better!!!

The filter system is the same filter system that the Sunshine tanks have. Sunshine no longer makes those type tanks as they have the Grayline tanks now.
I owned a Sunshine tank and it worked great...and I used it tourney fishing too. What I did not like about that filter system is that it takes up room in the tank that I needed for my bait...crowded bait = stressed bait. I like that the tank held a lot of water, but I had to reduce the number of baits to keep form over-crowding.
I now run a 25 gallon slim line grayline tank and I can actuall yhold as many baits with less weight on the boat.

As long as you stick with the three brands that have been mentioned in this thread you should be very happy. I have a 20 galloon Grayline and i'm very happy, my fishin buddy has a 30 gallon sunshine and it does better for longer durations. All are good, if you like the Blulewater then give it a go.

Check with MrG or Sharc here on the forum, they tourmament fish and whatever they use keeps bait alive for over 9 hours. Don't want to muddy the waters by throwing another brand out there but we run a 50 gallon Creek Bank. We haul 50 to 100 shad from Belton to every tournament. Sharc also has a 50 gallon Grayline that we load up in the back of the truck for summertime tourneys. I also run a 30 gallon Grayline in my boat here on Belton and the filter system in the Creek Bank is easier to change and maintain. They all work as long as you don't overload them.
