I bought these for crabbing last year but they never hit the water. One is still wrapped in plastic even. The first $30 takes it but you need to pick it up at my place in San Jose or I can deliver if there is fishing involved  :smt003

Yo Mooch... I thought you gave up crabbing and even sold your own box traps.  Are you planning to give it another try?

yes I'am....and if I don't get a single crab to enter the friggin trap.....guess what? I'll be re-selling that bad boy AGAIN....

I was thinking that the traps I bought last year was "defective"...and then I just realized I sucked at it  :smt011

THis year will be different, the mooch shalll prevail  :smt109 Besides, I'm hoping to "mooch" some of that HMB chilli Bob made last year  :smt003

Nah... they weren't defective, you just used them wrong.  First you placed your bait to close to the ceiling of the trap causing the crabs to crawl on top to dine-and-dash, instead of going inside to get their meal.  I also think you might have been dropping some of your traps upside down leaving the doors wide open.  Oh well... we'll make sure you don't make the same mistakes.

thanks papa bill.....since you'll be out of action for a while, I'll try my best to "gift" you some crabs.....that's if your traps are NOT defective  :smt003

I want a full refund if those critters ignore me again  :smt011
