Questions about Frabill Worm and Leech Lodge | Ventilated Storage for Worms and Leeches | Specially Designed for Walleye Fishermen

How many worms can you put in container?

Answer: We have used ours for leeches, so I don't know about worms and I believe my husband put about a dozen leeches in it.

Answer: This is a good size container and you can easily put 6 dozen or more crawlers in it without over filling

Answer: You can put 3 to 6 dozen large nightcrawlers easily ..just keep the dirt moist when in use and refrigerated when your not using it..Best bait container I've ever owned!

Answer: I use worm bedding, and this can easily hold 6-8 dozen with enough bedding for a day, but small enough to fit in cooler on hot days.

Answer: With the dirt that you usually get when you purchase a dozen crawlers, I’d say you can easily fit 2 dozen. I use mine for leaches.

What is the trap for?

The description and details show 2 different sizes what is the correct size?

Answer: Both has a styrofoam insert in it you can remove

Answer: It will hold a commercial container of night crawlers.

what is the interior trap used for?

Answer: You can pick your bait up and the water will drain out of the interior trap. Then dump the water out of the outer bucket and put fresh water in it.

Answer: As a woman who goes fishing, when the interior trap is dropped into to water it fills but most of all when it is lifted out the water comes out making very light it easier to lift.

Answer: To hold the minnows, the outside bucket holds the water. The enter bucket has holes around the bottom to be use in a boat our place in the water.

How big is the hole?

Answer: about 7 inches

Is this an insulated bucket

Answer: No

What size batteries does it take? How many?

Does this do a good job keeping the car dry transporting it to fishing hole?

Answer: car yes on a snowmobile ride__don't know yet. got for winter fishing.

Answer: If you put it in a milk crate so it doesn't fall over you will not loose your water as long as it is not filled right to the top

Answer: Yes, I had no problem driving it from the bait shop. It worked perfectly.

Answer: Generally speaking, yes. As long as it remains upright.

Will this stay in a livewell of a boat and not float?

will this bucket fit in the 6-gallon padded seat bucket

Answer: yes, fits in my "fish and sit" bucket just fine

Answer: Easily...its 8 qt capacity. 10.63 in. D x 11.5 in. H

Answer: yes, it should.

How many cups of bait can this container hold

Answer: With the foam in it probably one normal bait container you would get in a bait shop.

What is the diameter of white portion of the interior bucket and then the diameter of the yellow portion of the interior bucket?

will this bucket fit in the frabill 6-gallon padded seat bucket for transport

Does it float and is it waterproof? looking for something I can put in water to attach to my float tube, not something that will drown my live worms

Answer: As for floating I've had no issues setting it in the water to keep the temp down for the worms, it's a nicely made styrofoam container and the top fits good and snug!...I myself have had no problems with the lid, but I've seen other tell otherwise!

Answer: not sure, I carry it in my boat, I have 2 and one of them the lid doesnt stay on very well. not made as goe d as my old ones. I think that the water would come in at the lid , cause it doesn't have a tight tight seal.

Answer: It does float but it’s not waterproof.

What size batteries does it take and how many?

Yvan Trepanier : Good

Nick T. : Five Stars

nice insulated minnow bucket, no complaints thus far. plan on using this winter for ice fishing.

Mike : Leeches escaped

I have been using an earlier version of this product for 20 years without any problems and recently purchased this for a camping trip where I needed one for both leeches and crawlers. Overnight the majority of the leeches escaped leaving me without the bait I was depending on to catch dinner.

Sean lawrence : small

the elder : One Star

LID NEEDS NEW DESIGN TOO EASY TO DROP.I WENT BACK MY OLD SQUARE ONE WITH THE ELASTIC BAND

Rich : Five Stars

very nice, bought some as gifts and they love it

onza04 : Solid minnow bucket! Would recommend.

Pretty standard minnow bucket with styrofoam lined as the insulation. Has a spot for your net and aerorator. While transporting I do fill it to about 50-60% water and that does minimize the water sloshing issue. Overall I recommend!

Andrey : Five Stars

Great for night crawlers.

Joe D Hardgrave : Four Stars

Amazon Customer : disappoint!!

No insulation layer at all ! disappoint !!!

A. Anderson : Perfect little worm keeper

Perfect little worm keeper. Sits in fridg like a jar of pickles. Handle makes it easy to tote around.

Scott Corio : The bucket is perfect for minnows

The bucket is perfect for minnows. As one reviewer stated, there are areas on each side of the lid where you can attach a pump or net. My pump also had a belt clip style clip on the back, and it worked perfectly with the bucket lid. The hole in the top for the air hose is really nice and allows you to close the lid without pinching the air hose. I have a bobber dip net which has a foam handle so it wasn't able to slide into the bracket for the net, but the bucket was tall enough that I could leave the net in the bucket and still close the lid.

Jay R Rock Hall : NICE BAIT CONTAINER

SIZE IS EASY TO HANDLE AND FITS INTO EXTRA REFRIGERATOR EASILY.
MUST MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE THE LID ON PROPERLY.

Great, well made should last for many years.

Bernard Jergens : Do Not Buy

Do not buy this item. I bought two for a camping/fishing trip and lost all my biat due to lids coming off. the lid does not lock into place and seems to self twist itself off. I spent a lot of time cleaning up from spills and at the end lost all my bait. Very poor quality design.

Amazon Customer : Great worm lodge

This is my second one and they last a long time. Keep worms fresh and from freezing when out in cold weather.

A. Anderson : Perfect little worm keeper

Perfect little worm keeper. Sits in fridg like a jar of pickles. Handle makes it easy to tote around.

Johnny Vanhoy : Junk

Not made for red worms. Trued to used it for red worms and they get between foam liner and plastic outer shell as well as where it locks together. Some got to hot and died. Will be ordering my coffee can linert

Minnesota : Five Stars

Luis Ernesto Espinoza : Five Stars

Amazon Customer : Do not buy

I would not recommend this product to anyone. First it is way smaller then the picture looks. Secondly two times now I have put worms in it they have gotten up in my refrigerator, luckily both times I also had the container down inside a plastic bag.

PA Hunter : Super Product

Great, well made minnow bucket. I had to buy a new one as I lost the old one. They are well constructed and work very well for transporting minnows.

Colten E. Bennett : Watch for the top falling off.

Top will fall off if you don't pay attention.

rob mack : Four Stars

A bit smaller than expected but great product.

Phil : a bit of a disappointment but oh well

This item is advertised as having the aerator and hose but the package arrived without them. After contacting Amazon the description is wrong and the price is just for the bucket, a bit of a disappointment but oh well. The bucket itself is of good quality and well made.

David Scheunemann : Five Stars

Is what I wanted.
