About Pawfly live-bait aerators

Four battery aerators for buckets up to 100 gallons and a 13-quart bait cooler with its own, on batteries from 1800 to 4400 mAh.

All four pumps charge over USB, from a phone charger, a power bank or a laptop. For a 5 to 20 gallon minnow bucket, the White Battery Air Pump and the Portable Live Bait Pump each move 25 GPH. The Minnow Bucket Aerator steps up to 64 GPH for buckets up to 65 gallons, with two hoses and two stones in the box.

Each has an intermittent mode, 10 seconds on and 10 off, that stretches the charge. The Rechargeable Live Bait Aerator also runs from a wall plug at home, and its 2200 mAh battery takes over when the power drops. For a full day out, the Live Bait Cooler puts a 2200 mAh aerator inside a 13-quart insulated box with two latches and a shoulder strap.

The 6 live-bait aerators on this shelf belong to the Pawfly catalog.

Also by need: air pumps, every size, quiet air pumps, battery and rechargeable pumps.

Questions about Pawfly bait aerators

Can your Pawfly bait aerator get wet?

The Rechargeable Live Bait Aerator can: it is waterproof and takes no harm from a short soak in deep water. For the others, keep the pump body dry and run only the hose and stone into the bucket.

Which Pawfly bait aerator comes with a light?

Two do, as options. The Rechargeable Live Bait Aerator has a With Cap Light version in each of its three sizes, from 5 to 20 up to 60 to 100 gallons, and the White Battery Air Pump has a 5 to 20 gallon Kit with Light.

What does the Pawfly 13 quart bait cooler hold?

Inside it measures 12.8 by 7.3 by 9.4 in, room for 10 standard 16.9 oz water bottles or a good catch. A removable net basket lifts the bait out, a top window lets you drop fish in without opening the lid, and the 2200 mAh aerator runs up to 36 hours.
