Aerated bait container

A bait container apparatus, comprising,

• a primary container, with the primary container having a first side wall and a first floor, and
• a top wall, and a second floor spaced between the top wall and the first floor, and
• a flexible resilient pneumatic bladder reservoir mounted between the first floor and the second floor, and a pneumatic pump means mounted between the top wall and the second floor for selective inflation of the bladder reservoir, with the pneumatic pump means having a pump rod reciprocatably and slidably directed through the top wall into the pneumatic pump means, with the pump rod having a handle positioned exteriorly of the top wall, and
• a bait container mounted within the primary container between the top wall and the second floor, with the bait container having an insulated layer surrounding the bait container between the top wall and the floor, and
• conduit means directed into the bait container for directing aeration of the bait container from the bladder reservoir, and
• the conduit means includes a first conduit directed from the pump means into the bladder reservoir, and a valve member mounted to the top wall in pneumatic communication with a second conduit for selective passage of air from the bladder reservoir, and a third conduit directed from the valve into the bait container.
