go pro crabs

trap should be tied to main rope ,don't use carabener,those aluminum clips turn sideways and pull and the rope slips right out .maybe one with a lock, but the salt destroys the retention spring and they get stuck,foolish in my eyes.I use a bowline with clovehitch to main line, tape the end . 1 lost trap in your favorite hole is to much risk.

You should provide Rod with this feedback, he the author and would probably appreciate your advice.

I think I've shared this here before. Here's a video of my trap @ 100 feet starring many crabs, flounders (one nibbles at the go pro for a bit) and a ton of Surf Perch [TwjZUfOQRCk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwjZUfOQRCk
