Quick take

A two-piece torpedo-shaped trap with black steel mesh that works in current or calm water for capturing crawfish and bait.

This Frabill torpedo-style crawfish trap is built from black vinyl-dipped steel mesh, so it blends into the bottom of a creek, pond or lake. It comes apart in two pieces, which makes loading bait and emptying the catch simple. The tapered shape suits both flowing and still water, and a spring clip holds it shut. At roughly 10 by 9.75 by 9 inches and 16 ounces, it is easy to carry and set.

Best for

  • Trapping crawfish for live bait

Strengths

  • Two-piece design makes baiting and catch removal easy
