Trapping Hint:
Always test the waters close to your home first. The glory hole can be right
down the road! Some of the best trapping is inside the city limits and it is perfectly
legal to trap there! I have read some amazing stories this year from buyers who
have trapped unreal amounts of crayfish even in little creeks right next to
their house. Anywhere there is water is a potential glory hole!
So,
you want to catch Crayfish, right?
Catching crayfish is very easy! Almost
any trap or pot will catch crayfish but, the big question is How Many crayfish
will you catch and How Fast
will the crawfish trap or pot catch them. ALSO, a HUGE factor in
catching crayfish is the
Escape Factor. Once a crayfish eats their fill of your bait they immediately try
and find their way out of the trap and find a good place to hide. Crayfish have
many Predators and there is no question that it is extremely difficult to lure a
crayfish out of hiding and into your crawfish trap. After you have captured a hungry
crayfish it is well known that it is extremely difficult to prevent their
escape. Once a crayfish is in a trap they are totally exposed, 'or so seems to
them', to any predator in the vicinity.
My trap design has successfully
eliminated all of the above problems in catching a lot of crayfish fast plus 30
other factors to catch crayfish that I
classify as Trade Secrets. I
personally
and my crew have caught over 4 million pounds
of wild crayfish from 1971 to
1984. My love for research and development with hands on experience made it
possible.
Check out the rest of my site and then
place your order. Find out what it is like to 'Really Catch Crayfish'!
Remember, supplies are always limited. All crawfish traps are 'Hand Made'. It is
impossible to mass produce this design and still have the traps fish correctly.
I've spent 1000s trying to mass produce these traps and have concluded that it
just can't be done. To many factors come into play that make these traps fish the
way they do.

Terry,
I took your advice and had great
luck. Caught 18lbs in one 8 hour set. I have enclosed some
pictures for you to see.
Thanks for all the fun,

Hi
Terry,
I chucked the "commercial" trap I purchased from you into the
Pit river here in northern CA on my fishing trip a couple weeks ago.
the next morning I pulled it out of the water and counted out 88
crawdads!! that trap works very well. I used a fresh
salmon head as bait. Cooking them up was fun and they tasted good,
better than the Louisiana crawdads I ate at the Isleton crawdad festival
near Sacramento.

YOUR CRAWDAD TRAPS ROCK!!!!!
My kids love to catch and
eat crawdads! I could not believe how many crawdads we caught our first
time out. We caught 3 5-gallon buckets of crawdads with 3 traps in one
day. Is that many legal to catch?

Terry,
Here are some photos of our typical catch on Strawberry reservoir in
central Utah. I promised you some time ago to send some. We think we get
some pretty big ones here, but I don't have much to compare them to. Our
largest has measured 7 1/4 inches long. The piece of paper is 8 inches
long. My catch is in the two buckets to the right in the photo using two
Commercials and two of the smaller Sportsman Pro. Our biggest catch for
two days is 980. Thanks,
Dave Leikis

Dear Terry,
I am 16 years of age and I have been crayfishing since I've been about
9. I started with a Walmart bought trap that didn't work that well.
Then I started doing some lobstering in Maine and I noticed that using
shrimp mesh netting for the kitchen heads in the lobster traps worked
well. So I started using it in my traps. I began making them all
square, and I do to this day. They worked pretty good on 3 night sets.
So a few days after Christmas this year I had my dad buy me one of
your commercial models off of ebay. And let me tell you, I caught more
crayfish in a one night set then I ever did in a three night set. I
was proud to show off my 4 pounds of crayfish that I caught in your
trap. I hope you continue making these traps and continue selling them
because I am looking forward to buying many more from you in the
future.
Sincerely,
Joe Archambault -- Connecticut

Terry,
Here is the results of our first time out shown here with my wife. Used a little bag of frozen shad for bait, built a little box out of hailscreen for the bait. They were completely gone in 8 hrs. Going to try and cook them tommorrow. I've been purging them 24 hrs. in well water. They are really fiesty. Your trap works, period.

Hello Terry,
I'm sending you a couple of pictures of our very first fresh water lobster catch with your traps. They work great! Yes, even here in Colorado with 12,000 foot peaks in the background these tasty guys are just in our back yard. This is the result of the traps being out for only 24 hours. Plenty of these guys for tomorrow nights feast!
I hope that you enjoy the pictures. We plan to trap until frost, and freeze the extra tails for winter feasting with beer and wine.
Best Regards,
Ron and Deb Striegel

Cameron caught these in one day with a single Sportsman Pro Trap.
Another young fellow from Northern California reported that he caught
116 pounds of crayfish in 8 hours using a single Sportsman Pro in the
same exact spot located in a small creek only 16 inches deep. I've done
the same in less time but I was using the Commercial Trap during prime
time but, this was in Lake Billy Chinook, the lake pictured on this web
site. For first timers these two did pretty darn good!
