Fishingreek Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 Anyone know the live well size on 2005-2008 txw 175? I tournament fish with my son & need a live well big enough for 2 limits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User WRB Posted October 22 Super User Share Posted October 22 Generally speaking a 15 gallon livewell can support 5 bass weight 15 lbs if properly manage*with good aeration to keep the DO levels good and water temperature around 70-75 degrees. Not familiar with your boat suggest asking a Tracker Dealer. Tom PS, 231 square inches per gallon of water. Length X width X depth divided by 231 = gallons. * Sure Life Catch & Release additive.

Functional Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 my 2013 is a 21 gallon. I believe the 08ish tracker is pretty much the exact same boat. Personally I wouldnt be confident fitting 10 bass in there and expecting many to survive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User gimruis Posted October 22 Super User Share Posted October 22 I wouldn't be putting fish in a livewell if the water temps were above 75 regardless of how big it was. That's when its time to incorporate the immediate catch and release format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of bass lakes during tournament dates are warm water fisheries requiring managing the water temps in the livewell. Totally agree all tournaments should adopt catch weigh/measure photo and release ASAP! Tom 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol... I think you missed the initial question and topic of the thread. It’s about a specific size livewell for tournament fishing. Next time respond with something relevant. Or just don’t respond. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super User WRB Posted October 23 Super User Share Posted October 23 Where are the monitors? If the member chooses to convert the livewell into deep fryer that is a choice. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what I posted airshot. Seems reasonable to comment in a thread when its relevant or helpful. Clearly your response was neither. I am not a moderator so I cannot enforce such a request. If someone asked about a specific livewell capacity, certainly it would be reasonable to expect responses on such a topic. Not one indicating that they don't use their livewell. The response immediately prior to mine should be marked as the solution. Its helpful and with specs. Nice post @Hoosierman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierman Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Too bad you don't have the TF model, my 2018 TF has 2 livewells (1 for bait and 1 for catches). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
