IFISH say's,

I've got a on-board livewell aswell on my V.V., and I discovered ( after a near scare ) that I needed a 'drop net' inside my well. What I did is I cut the lid to make to make it 2 sections. I put the fish in through the smaller opening. I learned this trick from Mr.Joey Joe Joe Castro. You got and get a laundry bag, and cut that bad boy in half. One the side that I put the fish in, I put the cut laundry bag on that side and fastened it down with tie wraps. So now, when I put my fish in, the go in through the 'net hole ', and if they try to jump out, the laundry bag acts like a 'net', or catch cloth. It'll prevent them from jumping out. Make sure to make the bag long, so when it sits in your well, you have about 6" of extra slack, so If they jump, it just thwarts their efforts. Hope this helps bro.
