I want to see some of these pots. I want to build some myself but not sure what really works.
It's cheaper just to buy them.
At $100 a pop? No way. What kind of pots are you guys using?
I only paid $30-40

I only paid 10-12$ for mine...  shrimp pots work to..
Their going down!!!

Yeah, I see that now. I bought that round one 6 years ago at Wholesale in Burlington. I was there already, I wasn't going shopping anywhere else and I needed it right then and now and didn't care about paying $30. Why don't ya jump Smossy, he thought a guy had to spend a $100 on a pot  :o :chuckle: :chuckle:

Talking about the round, cheaper style pot, I don't care for them as much as the heavier square one I have. I don't care for the clips that hold it together, however It's nice when you have to empty it. Also the material is pretty flimsy. I had that pot out in a lake with otters and beavers and it got smashed in the middle by one of those darn rodents. >:( . The heavier square pot is constructed well, I like the side door entrance just fine, and it's got a nice little bungee strap at the bottom for your bait, and I believe it sits good and stable at the bottom of the lake when you set it  :dunno: (hope you all love my run on sentences). The square pot caught more crawdads at Buffalo, so now I'm convinced it's the better pot, regardless of the bait used :chuckle:

I been using the Frabill traps. The rectangular one was $25 and the large cylindrical one was $18. I seem to catch more with the smaller rectangular one with opening. Pulled 27 out of it after sitting over night. The first time using the cylinder one the latch failed and I lost 8-10 of them pulling it into my boat.

Tri State.  Good call.  I think I am going to Cabelas in about 30 minutes I will check there also.  Now that I have a boat again I am on Roosevelt with the family this summer and will have to catch some of those bugs.
It's a TIKKA thing..., you may not understand.

If you think you can beat The Beast and all of it's 9 1/4 inches of glory (sounds terrible I know) you are going to want to find that....

No you don't need any kind of license of any sort. Someone's pulling your crawdad leg. :chuckle: You will need a pass for the rez I believe.
