Do you have the new clover leaf style trap (8)1+3 entrance holes, galvanized
@ReelTexasOutdoors12 күн бұрын
Hi Tony! Thanks for the comment and question. I am not sure that I understand your question, but this trap does have 8 total entry points, or 2 on each side (2 per funnel). If you were asking something different, please let me know. Thank you, sir!

What is that down on the corner just below the entrance on the left side??? Almost looks like a turtle head, because it's not moving or gill's flapping????.

Great product. Would you consider making a collapsible version for easier storage and transport?
@ReelTexasOutdoors2 ай бұрын
Thank you. Yes sir, I’ve honestly thought about it quite a bit. However, to do so, you would really limit the strength of the holding cage when lifting it out of the water. I’m not exactly sure how I would want to design one where it kept the same strength as it has now. It is a great idea, though.

In commercial minnow harvesting, theres two truths, galvanized and shiny traps will outproduce a black yrap 3:1 even when baited. If it rusts up, hit it with cold galvanizing spray paint in the off season. Rule #2 at least in mn: the best bait is a block of white styrofoam floating on a cord in the center of the trap. in the center

i didnt see a single fish swim sideways and enter the trap. i saw two edits, both times "MO FISH". but never saw a single fish enter the gate.
@ReelTexasOutdoors3 ай бұрын
Im confused by your comment. Is it implying that the fish were placed inside the trap? Ive made one trap to date with horizontal openings, and this is the one in the video. It was an experiment for fun, but it clearly caught the fish. I would use this trap now only in certain situations, for like crawfish. It's not ideal for bait fish.
@RobCardIV3 ай бұрын
instead of using the wire grid with the 1 inch holes going vertically.... turn it 90 degrees so that the half inch holes go vertically.... i mean... maybe a fish might try to swim horizontally to escape but... i dont think so. laymens terms. the walls of your trap have the 1 inch holes on the wire going up and down. why ? fish are tall , not wide. turn the walls so that the wire runs half inch tall holes and 1 inch wide holes. i doubt most 1 inch fish will swim horizontally to escape.
@ReelTexasOutdoors3 ай бұрын
Good idea. However, the traps are cut the way they are to save wire and time cutting/assembling the traps. If I were to cut the wire in a manner that made the mesh run horizontally, I would have to use a ton more wire, make more cuts, and use more time to build one. It's just not efficient to build one this way, unfortunately. However, it's a non issue now as we make traps out of 1/2 x 1/2 heavy gauge wire also.

@ReelTexasOutdoors4 ай бұрын
Thanks for the comment, I sincerely appreciate it. To be honest, this is the only trap I have ever built with horizontal openings. I have built thousands of traps with vertical, but I still have this one to date. It’s not very practical for fish, but it isn’t bad for crawfish and other things that crawl up the ramps. Overall, it’s an okay trap, but I would not recommend it for fish exclusively. I have not caught any turtles in it however I don’t typically use it very much either. Either way, thank you again for the comment. I sincerely appreciate you.

do you have a preference for a trap used in creeks and rivers vs lake and ponds?
@ReelTexasOutdoors4 ай бұрын
Hi Clayton, my apologies for the slow response. I think it would depend on whether or not you can find some pockets/pools of slow moving water. If so, then I would go with a Z-trap. If you cannot and you have to bait it, then I would say clover. Check out that last short i posted on the channel. That guy was using one of my Z-traps in a creek and caught a ton. Hope this helps man, have a good one.
