Keep your bilge clean the easy way
« on: May 05, 2007, 12:52:24 PM »

Want to keep your bilge clean without really doing any work ?

Just throw a bar of old fashioned LAVA soap in the bottom of your bilge and leave it there.  Just throw it in there and forget about it...if the bilge is dirty, fill it up with water from your hose before you leave for a tournament ( for the challenged, ya gotta have the plug in for this , LOL  )put enough water in so it can slosh around while you are driving to the ramp, the lava will bounce around in there and do some cleaning, it doesn't foam up like a lot of soaps do.  When you get there, pull the plug while in the parking lot and drain it, put your plug back in and go fishing.
Plus if you take on some backwash water in the bilge it'll clean with that too.

After a few trips doing this the bilge will be much cleaner than when you started.

Ok this may go without saying but we should all notice he said drain it in the parking lot not on the boat ramp.  I've seen some scary stuff being drained back into lakes and rivers.
