Frabill Magnum Bait Station® Replacement Aerator

The Frabill Magnum Bait Station® Replacement Aerator is the easy way to keep live bait in peak condition while you fish. If your original aerator is worn out or you need a backup, this replacement unit connects directly to the lid of any Frabill Magnum Bait Station cooler and starts pumping oxygen into your bait in seconds. The integrated port design means no drilling, fitting modifications, or complicated rigging—just drop it in place and you're ready to go. Whether you're running a 12V power source or relying on two D batteries in the field, this aerator turns your bait station into a functional live well that keeps your crawlers, minnows, and shiners lively through a long day on the water.

Replacement aerators get heavy use and can fail at the worst possible moment. Having a spare on hand means you'll never show up to your favorite fishing hole without the ability to maintain your bait. The compatibility with every Magnum Bait Station size means one aerator works across your whole collection of coolers, so whether you're running a compact model or a larger capacity unit, you're covered.

Installation takes just seconds—no tools, no expertise required. If you're already familiar with your Magnum Bait Station, swapping in a fresh aerator is straightforward enough that you can do it in the truck bed before sunrise. For anglers who depend on live bait, keeping an aerator in good working order isn't optional; it's the difference between responsive, aggressive bait and dead weight in your cooler.
