Escape-Proof Foldable Crawdad Trap

Dimensions: 30 cm L × 15 cm W × 15 cm H; weight: 420 g; capacity: accommodates multiple crawfish, shrimp, or small eels. Constructed from corrosion-resistant, high-tensile-strength mesh and reinforced frame for long-term submersion in freshwater environments. Features six precisely sized entry holes with inward-facing funnel geometry and internal baffles that prevent escape once prey enters. Hydrodynamic shape minimises drag and stabilises positioning in slow-moving streams or still pond water. Fully foldable design allows compact storage and rapid on-site assembly — no tools required. The trap operates via passive, bait-driven capture: prey drawn in by scent follow tapered entrance tunnels into a central chamber where structural geometry and smooth interior surfaces eliminate gripping points needed for reversal. Optimised for use in ponds, lakes, slow-flowing streams, docks, kayaks, and aquaculture enclosures. Ideal for recreational crawfishing, field research, small-scale aquaculture monitoring, and sustainable live-bait collection. Designed for repeated deployment in variable freshwater conditions — from shallow margins to submerged dock pilings.
