Flambeau Outdoors 6062BC Premium Bait Bucket Lid, Easy-Access Live Bait Storage Accessory, Lime Green

It doesn’t fit all 5gall. Generally speaking, they are 11-3/4” and 11-7/8” openings. This only fits 11-3/4” openings. I hope this helps to decrease the negative reviews when, obviously, is a buyer error and a seller error (not giving an accurate fitment to buyer).This is an awesome product once you find a bucket that kits b/c you ll have better temperament 😂.

Best bait bucket lid I've used. Would buy again

Bought a fleet farm bucket snug fit but no heat needed just shear muscle but it's on and works good.

Want this to fit on the orange Home Depot bucket? Take a heat gun to the inside top 1 to 1.5" portion of the bucket. Keep going around and around the inside edge until the plastic turns shiny which means it's ready to bend to your will. Fit this bucket lid on top of the bucket forcing the hot edge under the lid recess and hold it down for a few minutes until the bucket plastic cools and hardens. You can actually see the curve under the lid and, after it fully cools/hardens, the lid pops on and off the bucket like they were made for each other. This should work on any bucket.

Broke the last one (my fault)so I needed a replacement.

Edit: Since I made my first review of this good idea that won’t work, Flambeau added an additional picture to display the outer dimensions of the lid. If one looks close;y you might notice the white line is showing a outside dimension 11.93 inches. However the one I and apparently many other have, when precisely measured with machine calipers shows the inside dimension at 12 inches. Either way I have not found any bucket from Lowes, Ace, Hoem D., or Uniline that will accept this lid. It is the same size as the buckets. Will never work. I would really appreciate where they seem to routinely suggest most buckets are 11.75 in. Baffling marketing. It wish it worked. It is a great idea. Repeatedly falls of with wave action from the moving boat.The interior size of the this thing is exactly 12" in diameter. Ace Hardware and Home depot (brand new from the store) rim on the 5 gallon buckets are also 12" in diameter. which means one cannot make two 12" object mate up without one being samller than the other. Will not work!!!! IN fact in attempting to make it work, before I took some precise measurements I made it unusable for almost everything. I eventually found an 113/4" inch diameter bucket I had in the garage for a different purpose that kinda fits as long as you don't put water in it and lift it, because it deforms and the top pops off. The description at the top of the page, states that, the top has a 14.25" outside diameter which may true at it widest point, but that is not the interior deminsion. I suppose they have a magiician in house becuse in their technical details they suggest the packaging is actually smaller than the item. also the dimensions of the item in the tech details, is completely different than at the top of the page. So, I am certain equally frustrated fishermen have discovered and commented on, the joy of discovering the exsistence of a solution to aerated bait buckets, has absolutely not has not lived up to the reality. I blame Flambeau for the incredibly inaccurate dimensions stated in there Amazon page. Extremely disapointed. The laack of discalimer that the thing will not fit all five gallon buckets should be stated. I hope the designer who researched this mess has been slapped for his inability to measure bucket mouth sizes.

It fits great and I love all the holes and slots for my aerator, knife, etc. great value. Very functional.

Good product, does everything it claims to. Only issue is that it is difficult to put on the bucket, you really have to manipulate it to get on properly. Not an issue if the lid stayed on the bucket, but if you are taking it on and off it’s a pain
