Crab Pots & Bait Nets FAQs

How to tie rope to a crab pot?

To tie a rope to a crab pot, start by threading the rope through the pot's top eye or handle. Create a loop with the rope's loose end and pass it over the pot. Then, bring the end through the loop and pull tight to secure. Double knot for extra security. Ensure the knot is firm to withstand the tug of potential catches.

What is a crab pot?

A crab pot is a cylindrical wire trap used in crab fishing. It typically consists of a frame covered with a mesh material, allowing crabs to enter but preventing their escape. Bait is placed inside to attract crabs, and once they enter, they find it difficult to exit. Crab pots are deployed underwater and retrieved later to collect the captured crabs.

How to use a crab pot?

To use a crab pot, first, bait it with fish or other enticing bait. Lower the pot into the water to the desired depth, ensuring it remains upright. Mark its location for retrieval. Allow time for crabs to discover the bait and enter the pot. After a suitable period, retrieve the pot by pulling it up gently and collect any captured crabs inside.

What is the difference between a crab pot & a crab trap?

The main difference between a crab pot and a crab trap lies in their design and construction. A crab pot typically features a cylindrical shape with a mesh covering, while a crab trap often has a more box-like structure with openings for crabs to enter. Both are used for crab fishing but may vary in design, deployment method, and effectiveness in capturing crabs.
