1. A live well tank for use on a boat to hold water and fish, said tank comprising:a bottom;a sidewall section having first and second opposing ends, said sidewall section coupled with said bottom at said first end to define an interior compartment, and said sidewall section having an outwardly extending portion proximal to the bottom;a top coupled with said second end of said sidewall section, said top forming an opening sized for receiving a fish, said top having an upper surface projecting inwardly from said sidewall section to cover a portion of said interior compartment;a baffle coupled with said sidewall section having first and second surfaces, said first surface of said baffle extending generally horizontally from said sidewall section inwardly into said interior compartment, said second surface of said baffle extending outwardly toward said sidewall section to form an upper region of said interior compartment between said baffle and said top; andan overflow drain coupled with said sidewall section of said tank between said top and said baffle whereby said upper section is capable of retaining water near said top of said compartment regardless of the movement of the boat so that sloshing within the compartment is minimized. 2. The livewell tank of claim 1, wherein said outwardly extending portion is generally semicircular in cross section at a terminal end thereof. 3. The livewell tank of claim 1, wherein said first surface of said baffle has a portion parallel to a portion of said second surface of said baffle.
