  • Amazing cheap fish trap.
Style Name: Vinyl-dipped Steel
The fish trap works amazing especially for its price. We have caught tons of little fish to use for fishing. Great trap for anyone looking to catch some bait for cheap.

  • It is very sturdy and the vinyl coating is thick and even
Style Name: Vinyl-dipped Steel
I was hesitant because I felt it should cost more than this. I thought it would be flimsy. It is very sturdy and the vinyl coating is thick and even. I gave it five stars because it is a tried and proven design(I remember using a galvanzied one way back in the 1970's), and an upgrade in materials. I can find something that could be improved in anything. And with this iten the knocks I can find are it only has a 1 inch diameter whole for minnows to enter.... so if you want minnows longer than inches you might not be happy. And I also found the clip used to keep the two halves together to be too strong to open easily. The gauge wire used to make it is thick and it was difficult to keep it pressed open and manuever it into the holes to keep the two halves together. I am getting old, but I still am quite strong. There must have been a reason to over-build that clip because I am sure it costs more. It is well built. ... show more

  • If you have poor grip strength, you'll need help
Style Name: Vinyl-dipped Steel
I bought this minnow trap to use as a snake trap in my chicken coop, having read that these traps work great for that. They don't harm the snakes (and I love my Eastern black kingsnakes), but they help keep them away from the chicken eggs. I had a very sad experience last year with a snake eating one of the ceramic eggs I put in the nest to encourage my dunderheaded hen to lay where she's supposed to. The poor snake died because the ceramic egg would not break up, and it was too far down for me to get the snake to regurgitate it. This trap is well made and sturdy and goes together well, but I would caution you that it takes a good bit of thumb strength to press the closure mechanism that serves to keep the two pieces of the trap held together. I have had surgery on both of my thumb joints (a bone removed), so my grip strength is not as strong as I needed it to be to close the trap up. I managed to do it myself with great difficulty, but it will be very tough to get it back open without help. So if you have hand-strength issues, be sure you have someone around to help you release any snakes you trap...or minnows you catch. ... show more

  • Does the job!
Style Name: Vinyl-dipped Steel
The first one I received was bent, but Amazon sent another one at no cost which I was pleased with. We received the second one and brought it out that day to try it out. Caught a good sized mud minnow and about 10 small shrimp. Was happy with the trap, because it did its job and the bait wasn't able to get out. Hoping to take it out again soon and catch some more. Will update once I try the trap out a few more times. All in all, cannot complain about the bargain! ... show more
