cheap gear bucket for 8" hatch

[9erfan]

Sweet!! Just picked up my new Revo yesterday and I wanted to put my battery for my ff in there. Hopefully the gear bucket will fit over the top of it. Dragging the kids to lowes right now.

Perfect!  That is a slick trick.  Now for the real test, how many beers can you fit down into that thing.  It has ice bucket written all over it! 

You'll need a friend to help get you one if you use the back hatch...Call me on ch.69

slightly diferent, but I use one of those cheap minna pails with the perforated blue lids
(in most bait shops)  on my Ride135.  It fist perfect in the rear hatch, holds a couple dozen minna's when wet (though sloshes end up in my crack  ) and holds odds and ends perfect when foregoing the minna treatment

Thanks James! You couldn't have found this one week earlier, could you?

Order and recieved the "Official" gear bucket set last week to get ready for GS5; could have bought a case of the Lowes version for the same price....

Day late, dollar short..... more like $53 dollars short...

I use the gear buskets as well...One for RF and one for "bait" or general fishing. I have a motto if it don't fit it dont go! the only exception is bass and trout.

BRILLIANT!!! ..... I like that it's much deeper than the Hobie gear bucket.

+1, cheap and simple !, thanks for the tip.

Thanks.  I picked up a few.  I was walmart the other day and noticed they also sell same paint buckets.
