Quick take
Two collapsible spring crab traps with galvanized frames and polyethylene mesh, designed for easy crab and shrimp capture.
Best for
- Crabbing and shrimp trapping from docks, piers or boats
- Anglers who want portable collapsible traps
- Saltwater environments where corrosion is a concern
Skip if
- You need a trap larger than 35 cm for very large crabs
- You want a rigid frame that does not collapse
Strengths
- The spring design collapses flat for easy transport and storage
- Galvanized steel with plastic coating resists saltwater rust
- The large 0.5-inch mesh lets small crabs and shrimp enter easily
Trade-offs
- Spring traps are slower to set up and tear down than rigid traps
- The collapsible design may weaken the frame over time
- Two small traps mean less catch capacity than one large trap
Fishing fit
- Species
- Crab & shrimp
- Water
