Jim,
If I get an aerator thats 12v would you recommend just getting a stand alone inexpensive car battery??

That is mostly because I had extras of those in my boat junk box, so I used them. I doubt it is really that important. Any should work fine.

Dakota,

Car batteries are not rechargeable in the fishing sense. You need a deep cycle (trolling motor) battery. If you already have a livewell on the boat you can just tap into that.

I have an independent starting and trolling motor battery set up on my boat so this is just another accessory on the trolling motor battery. That way I cant run down the starting battery by mistake and end up stranded.

I am starting another post with the livewell pics.

As long as we don't let him fish out of the front :) (inside joke)

Glad you found the forum, now post a few pics without giving away our honeyholes! Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks Jim I have two trolling motors along with my cranking battery. I'll connect to my trolling battery. Thanks for the pics too. QUOTE=Jim;17913]Dakota,
