Mullett Hunter, you have a PM.

Here are a few pics of the "Tournament" Model that I referred to as the "Hotel".

Corner view, 4 inlets so this thing fills up FAST!



Bait container down through the middle, adds structural integrity and easy to load with dead bait.

I've got a quick question. How does everyone secure your bait to thebottom of thethe Inshore model? Just bought it at Outcast and both times I've used it I've tried tying it on the bottom of the trap with fishing line. Both times it ends up floating in the trap by the next moring. Thanks for any info.

I use a piece of copper wire to loop around the bait and then secure it to the bottom of the trap. I use 12 or 14 gauge wire and I strip the insulation away. The copper wire will bent easy when you set the bait and when you retrive it to 're-bait' the trap.

Try using 2lbs of chunked up menhaden and you should be able to use the bait without a bait pin.

Richie,

The trap has performed like I never could have imagined. Sorry now that it took so long

for me to get with you. We haven't fished much lately, but my 9 year old son enjoys re-bating it just to see how many we can catch. Amazing how much better it holds the fish without the normal escapement.The wire and build quality is the best I've seen.

Thanks again,

Dan G.
