Live Bait Fish Traps

Here at Cast Net World, we are very proud of the success that our pinfish/live bait fish traps offer all of our customers. Our goal was to eliminate wasted time on the water catching live bait so you, the fisherman, could spend that same precious time on your favorite fishing hole catching trophy fish instead. Tournament fishermen understand that time is of the essence and know that saving an hour or even just one minute could mean all the difference between winning or losing! With that in mind, we have exceeded our goal and have created a fisherman's dream.

For those fishermen interested in trapping live bait such as pinfish, spot, mutton minnows, squirrel fish, sea bass, porgies, bluegill, perch and more.. without chumming, throwing cast nets and making your boat a mess, then here's your answer! Our Live Bait Fish Traps are not your typical cheap pinfish traps that rust away or compare to those fish traps that are just not designed properly to trap enough live bait. Our live pinfish/bait fish traps were designed to trap the maximum amount of baitfish within the shortest amount of time.

All of our live bait fish traps are made of a very lightweight, welded, galvanized wire which is dipped in a black PVC coating for added saltwater protection. Catch N Bait live bait fish traps are built with all stainless steel clamp construction for many, many years of use to come.

We have 8 outstanding Pinfish/Live Bait Fish Traps below to choose from, starting with the smallest live bait fish trap first. (For more bait fish trapping information and complete instructions, please click on our LIVE BAIT FISH TRAP TIPS.)

** "Exit Wall" Bait Fish Trap Feature
We are the originator of this fish trap design and also the only company that make these styles of bait fish traps. The "Exit Wall" was added to our 2 most popular live bait fish traps with the intent to help confuse the bait fish by not letting them see a direct opening to the exit. We've made the exit wall in such a way that the bait would have to pass between the exit wall and the exit then make a sharp left or right turn fitting through the opening. The opening can only be seen by the bait fish at the very last second making it very difficult to figure out how to exit the bait fish traps. We recommend this design especially for those fisherman that have intentions on leaving their live bait fish traps out for more than 24 hours. This exit wall will help contain most of your live bait fish from escaping as your food becomes eaten inside all of your bait fish traps. This is an excellent fish trap design and highly recommended even for short-term use.

Shawn,
I'm the guy who got 3 traps Wednesday and some bait formula. You were right, worked like a charm, in 1 day caught enough pinfish for 2 great days in gulf. I'll be in touch prior to my next trip down, need another bucket of the bait formula and a holding pen. What a difference your traps made!
Thanks, Dick D.-Hernando Beach, Fl

Hello..my name is John Miller and I spoke to you earlier this week regarding the appropriate size pinfish trap for my needs. I purchased your new 1817EWH Model with the two trap compartments. I received the trap yesterday and set it out today around 1:00 pm. I used about a half dozen cut sardines and a couple of old squid pieces for bait. I checked the trap tonight around 6:30. All I can say is WOW!!!! Pinfish have been very hard to come by in our area because of the cold water (55 degrees) and almost everyone I know is whining about no live bait for deep offshore grouper fishing. In the last several weeks I have spent many many hours sabiking up bait nearshore for not much return. I tried your trap in my new SECRET spot :) (right next to my moored boat in about 4' of water on a mud bottom) and the result was between 100-200 lively pins!!! Just think what it might do on good bottom!!..and I would estimate that 3/4s of them were in the second compartment...just as you said. Now the truth is I don't know if it's your great trap design or just plain luck, or my secret spot....but nevertheless I"M HAPPY. On a less emotional note, I really liked the design when it arrived. It was well built and cleverly designed. Once you see it, you kind of say "of course!!"..that's the way it should be...double coverage!! Thanks again for steering me to your new design.
John Miller
PS..if you'd like some followup reports let me know.

---------------------------------------

Just wanted to let you know that I was not very excited about the 1122 trap that I purchased, looking at it and comparing it to the one that I had made, I thought that my trap would out catch it. After one wk. in Marathon,using both your trap and mine, placing them side by side, I am a believer, your trap out catches mine 5 to 1. Thanks for talking me into keeping it and I will let everyone that asks know what a great trap it is.
Jon Gober

---------------------------------------

To Whom It May Concern,
I am in receipt of my trap and bait and I am very impressed with the quality of the trap. It is unlike anything I have purchased at local bait stores. Thank you for a great product and fantastic service in getting it to me so quickly.
