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?

Product reviews of Frabill Worm and Leech Lodge | Ventilated Storage for Worms and Leeches | Specially Designed for Walleye Fishermen

B.P. : Best for the money

This is a great bucket. Keeps the bait alive for days. If you fish with minnows this the the bucket you want.

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

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

Chad Roberts : Compact n handy. will buy more.

Nice little bait bucket. Styrofoam liner. Locking lid. I'd say it will hold about a cup or 1 1/2 cups.

Lazaro Romero : OK

H. Elliott : Tops come off easily.

Lost 4 dozen leeches because top came loose on its own

Doug : Kept worms nice and cozy

Kept worms nice and cozy. Easy to open and close. Big mouth makes getting worms out very easy. Would purchase again.

billy smith : great product

i would recommend it to others

Corey Mabis : Functional

You can take this in the canoe, works great!

D. Behrens : Do not buy, picture does not represent what you are buying

Product description leads you to believe you are getting a medium sized minnow bucket. The actual product is not much larger than the worm cups you buy at Walmart. Shame on Amazon for misrepresenting this item.

Chee : Good

Good insulation in this keeps my worms lively. Durable construction, well made.

fdb : Disappointing

Insufficiantly perforated to put in the pond to keep the minnows alive. Not what I had in mind, but better than nothing.

Amazon Customer : Good product

works well for leeches

Amazon Customer : disappoint!!

No insulation layer at all ! disappoint !!!

Amazon Customer : Wish i had ordered it sooner

Worked great and ran for several days on 1 set of batteries. Really liked the insulated bucket. It kept everything from getting to hot and dying.

AmazonBT3 Customer : Bt3

Love this product..... wish they can in a slightly larger size too

Murph : Love this bait bucket with air

Love this bait bucket with air. Keeps the minnows alive for hours. Have not had to throw a dead one back yet.

Victor Fenik : Picture is misleading

The picture shows another similar bucket for minnows, so pay attention to the size when order.

LMAAK : Fishing Gear

This is a perfect gift for a boy/girl that likes fishing with grandpa!

josh noga : Five Stars

I like the product so far, just can't wait to test it out this winter

Chad Roberts : Compact n handy. will buy more.

Nice little bait bucket. Styrofoam liner. Locking lid. I'd say it will hold about a cup or 1 1/2 cups.

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.

reviewer123456 : lid is not insulated, overall value is poor

an old insulated soup container (for packing your lunch), with a couple holes drilled in the lid, works much better, and doesn't cost $9

Warren M. Jones : Five Stars

Great, well made should last for many years.

Taebruce : its alright

Its good but its too small its better using cooler.

CBH : Five Stars

Quality product just as described!!!

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.

Warren M. Jones : Five Stars

Great, well made should last for many years.

Doug : Kept worms nice and cozy

Kept worms nice and cozy. Easy to open and close. Big mouth makes getting worms out very easy. Would purchase again.

Dale Spencer : Five Stars

Working out just fine

gabe : non functional for leeches!

Have tried two of these for carrying leeches.The water always spills out and the leeches are left with no water so one has to keep filling it.The screw top is frustrating to open and close.
About 20 years ago there was a very good product now unavailable.
This one may be OK for carrying nigh crawlers....

Amazon Customer : Headline

Review!

Amazon Customer : disappoint!!

No insulation layer at all ! disappoint !!!

T : Five Stars

Great Product!!!

13btw : Very small

Much smaller than pictured and than I expected

Rich : Five Stars

very nice, bought some as gifts and they love it

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.

Robert T. : Four Stars

perfect for catching perch

Gary M. Brown : Five Stars

Perfect in every way.

Amazon Customer : Wish i had ordered it sooner

Worked great and ran for several days on 1 set of batteries. Really liked the insulated bucket. It kept everything from getting to hot and dying.
