ABSTRACT:
A container for water to maintain fish within the container in a live condition. The container is of water impermeable construction, and includes a drain valve adjacent the bottom, and water inlet and outlet openings positioned in the side walls of the container. The container is adapted to be placed within a receptacle, which can be provided in the hull of a boat, the receptacle having corresponding water inlet and outlet openings positioned opposite the respective openings in the container so that water that enters the receptacle through the water inlet flows into the container, and excess water flows through the water outlet, so that fresh water is circulated through the container. The container can be removed for transporting the fish, or it can be used for weighing the fish after the water has been drained therefrom through the drain valve.
