Trap anchors

[Slabbedout]

I bought these from redden net years ago

They work good but you need to release the line really slow to prevent the anchor from sinking to quick and twisting the line into a big mess, and I found if you set anywhere near coral or large rocky bottom they got snagged up easy.

I have switched to tieing a knot above the last trap and using a weight that I zipline down once I know the traps have hit the bottom. Seems to be more consistent and solid anchor

I attach chain around the bottom of the trap using plastic zip ties. I just follow the shape of the lower trap frame. They land flat, and don't move around. Seems to work...
