Crayfish PE Trap — Plastic Crab & Lobster Cage with Bait Pocket
Freshwater crayfish and crab traps do not need galvanized steel — they need to not rust, and they need to come back light. This trap is built from high-density PE mesh over a steel frame: the plastic does the containing, the steel does the standing, and the whole thing flat-packs so a distributor can stack a hundred traps where twenty rigid ones used to fit.
Plastic Where It Counts
- High-density PE mesh — no rust, no paint flaking; outlasts coated wire in freshwater service
- Steel frame — keeps the cage rigid when set; all-plastic traps sag and lose entry alignment
- Central nylon bait pocket — bait suspended mid-cage, so animals must enter fully to reach it
- Two one-way funnels — sized for crayfish and small crab; easy in, blocked on the way out
- Flat-pack stacking — collapses for shipping and storage; more traps per container

Baited and Set
Scent carries farther than sight for crayfish and crab, so oily baits — fish scraps, chicken necks, commercial bait blocks — hold the set longer than clean fillets. Set on mud and silt bottoms where they feed, check twice a day in warm water, and run traps in a line with one anchor per string so a single hauling pass clears the whole set. Between trips, stack them flat and dry; a trap that is kept dry between soakings is a trap that does not need replacing.
