lol, that crab was like watching a bait car. Finally gets in, thinks he scored, then panics when the trap's sprung and is forced to wait in shame till he's pulled out
Not effective. You lost 90 percent of the shrimp that were in there as you were raising the cage. And, there were over a dozen underneath the cage that weren't caught.
The crab's friend was hanging on pretty good to the top of the cage until it surfaced. Like, "I'm gonna bust you out man, gimme a minute to think about how I'm gonna do this."
Darren Thorne: Yup and the mesh around the sides, top & bottom, make it so the holes are smaller and the only way the crabs/shrimp can get in would be the 1 entrance. Doing that will increase your catch rate and not losing all the shrimp from escaping on the way up like we seen. Great idea, just some improvements to help the OP out 😊
This is just amazingly done new friend! All the aspects just flowed together for an overall, astonishing piece of art at the end! Thank you so much for your time in putting this together so stunningly well! Can't wait to join you on your next adventure 👍
I saw another comment about the shrimp being under the cage, you can move the bat up a little to where the cant get it from the top or the bottom of the cage, they have to go inside. Also nice mod, it reminds me of those collapsible traps for small crab and lobster and can even catch crawdads and shrimp
I used to go crabbing in the bays near Ocean City, NJ. We'd get a large hook and stick, connected by a large string. We'd lower the hook with a piece of fish on it to the bottom. Once we felt a tug, we'd start reeling in the string and hook. We were in a small boat....all of a sudden, the view of the crab holding on to the fish for dear life emerges from the murky water. Scoop it up with a net, repeat a couple dozen times, and dinner! Never a need for a cage. I always thought it so strange that they would hold on to the fish all the way out of the water!
no I've never done any trapping but I love to modify an invent stuff it looks as simple as this you need to put a bent plastic flap above the entry points putting a small spring on it to keep it open would work fine that way when you go to pull the cage out the water pressure and down force pushes the flaps down that should double your yield it looks like the majority of your shrimp Escape
I keep white shrimp as pets, along with other aquatic critters. They are very active and alert, and always the first creatures to go to the food I put in their tank.
