Quick take
A 16 gauge steel crawfish trap with built-in bait compartment, sized to catch large crawfish efficiently.
This Crayster crawfish trap is built from 16-gauge powder-coated steel, with a bait box inside that holds the bait where crawfish must enter to reach it. It comes with 25 feet of paracord and two carabiners, and it measures 18 by 12 by 6.5 inches. Anglers who want a box-style trap for crawfish in lakes, rivers and streams will find a self-contained setup with the rope already attached.
