[QUOTE="KDM, post: 235603, member: 314"] Best thing I've found is to take a 5 gallon bucket of HOT water. As in just below boiling, add a quart or so of bleach, and pour the solution into the livewell. Close the lid and let it sit there until cool. The steam will volatilize the chlorine therby allowing it to get into every little crevice of the container including the carpet if you have any around the lid. The heat will soften the cracks in the plastic container (livewell) allowing the chlorine to get into them better and when the mixture is cool, you can scrub any surfaces you deem need it. Then when you drain it, the mixture will clean and disinfect the plumbing as well. This process cleaned my bait well when about a half lb of leeches were left in it for two weeks in July. Hope you can get it cleaned up. [/QUOTE]
