Hey Anglers! I'm needing some help from y'all... our church is putting together an outdoorsy event and we would like to get one of those portable fish tanks that you see at the fishing shows. It's the type of portable fish tank that's used for fishing demonstrations; like those 6,000 gallon tank trailers that I've seen at a few shows recently.

If you know whom we can contact to make arrangements to have one of these at the function, please let me know either with a reply message to this post or by private message.

Thanks so much!!

UPDATE...

I called Bass Pro Shops this morning and had to call someone at their HQ in Springfield, MO. Looks like a pricey effort to get the tank from there to here! So I'm gonna have to narrow the search to demo tanks that are much closer to home!!!

Will try Gander Mountain later today.

Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

We're also looking to get the youth fishing tank for those that come to the event.

But I found a good picture of the kind of demonstration tank we're looking to track down...

Sure is an neat looking rig, but reguardless where you try to get it from i think it will be a pretty penny. i'll keep an eye out for you anyways

Check with Academy. In my experience they've been the most willing to help a good cause and I've seen just such a tank in their parking lot before. Also, here in the natural state you can call game and fish to bring one out but you have to do it way in advance. I wonder if the Texas equivalent to AGFC might have something or tell you who does.

I've check with our Texas equivalent and while they do have such a demo tank, they only employ it for their own events. But I'll definitely give Academy a ring!! Thanks!
