Quick take
Two-ring crab net with wire grid bottom for easy bait attachment and 50-foot rope for dock or boat use.
This two-ring crab net pairs a 24-inch galvanized wire upper ring with a 20-inch wire grid bottom ring, so bait attaches right to the grid and crabs are easy to lift out. Blue polyethylene mesh with 1.1-inch openings hangs 12 inches deep, and a 50-foot orange braided rope with a float keeps it easy to spot from the dock or pier. It folds down at about 2.1 pounds, a handy pick for anglers new to crabbing.

Strengths
