    Hi my husband and I really enjoyed your video. We are elderly and would love to make our own traps. We love to go crabbing. If I would be so kind and send us ytjr measurements for the trap and also where to order the wire to make the traps we have already purchased our pliers. Thank u. God bless. Keep up the great work making your traps.

    Yellow and red usually catch more than dark green or black

    • @crabcartel
      @crabcartel  2 года назад

      Yea I'm gonna make some red traps I heard the catch the best and everyone say the yellow don't catch. But the combo of both might do good.

    Hi Mr. Crab Cartel!! Would you be so kind as to show how you attach the zinc to the trap? I have two traps behind the house here in the Banana/Indian River Lagoon and tried to attach the zinc using the steel wire that sticks out on each end. Mine look like a two year old trying to tie shoe laces!!! I can never get a nice tight wrap on the zinc wire when attaching to the trap. Thank you. PS. When we were kids we'd catch crabs when my cajun grandmother would gumbo - those were the days!

    • @crabcartel
      @crabcartel  2 года назад

      Sure I can post a video showing how I attach my zinc to the trap stand by for the video. Also that Gumbo sounds good.

    Awesome video! I subscribed. What size hog-rings are you using? Same for the whole trap? After looking into the cost of the materials and seeing what goes into building one, I see why they cost what they do at the local bait shops!

    • @crabcartel
      @crabcartel  Год назад

      I will get you the size later today. Right now with materials going up it's close to $60 a trap now.

      Thanks! Here in Southern Maryland the vinyl traps run ~69 unrigged unless you buy a bunch and get a volume discount. In maryland only commercial can run pots, or waterfront owners can run 2. The potomac has its own rules though and I can run 2 pots there without a license or 5 pots if I buy a $30 license. Crazy right? I usually just trotline 😂
