It is very easy to use all you need is the trap and a can or two of tuna fish in oil and you are ready to use it

Comments about Frabill Frabill Galvanized Minnow Trap 16.5" Torpedo:

I'm a commerical baitfish trapper and last year decided to try out these traps. They're basically a normal gee trap with a extention piece in the middle. They collected about the same amount as a normal smaller gee trap. They are weak where the mesh is folded into the end rings and half the traps came loose here. After about one month of service I removed the middle pieces and just use them asa normal gee traps. They need to be wider and more reinforced for commericl use. If using them in fast moving water tied two leads to them attached to the clips....you'll lose far less and they will retrieve better. For larger traps I suggest "B" tyupe traps.
