I saw this on the internet somewhere and decided to try and build one for myself. Got everything from Home Depot for about $30 and it took about 3 hours to make. Toughest part was heating and bending the 1/2" PVC.

Parts:
1/2" x 10' PVC pipe (x3)
1/2" PVC T-Joints (x11)
1/2" PVC Cap
Plastic (or Nylon) fencing 3' x 25' with 1/4" holes
8" Wire Ties
Pool Noodle
Bungee Cord

This is excellent! Thank you!
 
That is the one I saw and based mine on. I decided to use 2 supports rather than the single center pole. It has to be easier to catch the bait without the pole.
 
Super job, I gotta try that. Thanks for sharing.
 
In follow-up: It has been in the water for over a month. I added a pint of minnows and have added a few more that I caught in my trap and not one has died (unless I used them for bait). I throw in a bunker tail every 2 weeks. I gotta tell ya, it is a real convenience to have the bait right there at my boat. They last much longer than in the minnow bucket.
