River Cane Fish Trap
Dalton Knapper:
Thanks for the nice comments everyone. I guess I will have to give the trap a try. I need to speak with Game & Fish and see if I can try it without having to get a commercial license and tags. I work at a park and they will probably let me test the trap for "scientific" purposes.
stickbender:
Ahhh yes, the good ol "Scientific Purposes", and "Research Clause". ...... ::) ;) Bring it down here, and we can do some scientific purposes, on some lobsters, and crabs. ;)

What park you work in?
Eric Krewson:
I have a friend who was a commercial fisherman all his life. At different times of the year he gravitated from trot lines to fish traps. He made net traps that were shaped like your cane trap. He would bait with soap or shad guts and catch piles of catfish in his traps.
