"I carry a bailing bucket also. Which has only ever been used to "bail" fluids I need to get rid of."
A well known BFTer uses a half-gallon pitcher, which seems pretty handy for bailing any kind of fluids.
About ballast: I have a 30-lb. Minn Kota that I thought I might mount at the bow to drag me at .5 mph for catfish. I am thinking that one or two batteries would help up there. Losing 20 pounds of body weight would help, too [laugh].

The older I get the more I would rather be considered a good man than a good fisherman.
