Palmyth Wire Grid Bottom Crab Nets Two Ring Crab Kit with Harness and Bait Clip 24” X 20” X 12”

My family and I took this on our vacation to Virginia Beach and went crabbing off a fishing pier. We used it about 4 or 5 times and overall caught several dozen blue crabs and one turtle (it was released safely). The trap was sturdy and well built and the ropes were good qualtity. There was no noticeable wear and tear, or fraying. The crabs stayed in the net while it was being hauled up. We will definitely continue to use it on future crabbing expeditions.

I bought this for crabbing off the pier where I live near the SE USA coast. Worked like a charm! Even dropped it into an oyster bed and had zero issues with the net tearing or anything like that. Thing seems to be made solid and had no issues bringing up the few blues I caught. I did go ahead and zip tie the lower rings together, as others have suggested. I also added a 6oz pyramid to the middle of the bottom ring grid with a Luxon connector. Lastly, I cut a short length off the end of the hand line and used it to make the harness a 4-way, to give the trap a bit more stability (see photo). I still need to make a few adjustments to the harness-arm lengths, but didn’t have any issues using it in the ocean, regardless. Bait hook worked great on some chicken legs. The little scale seems to be handy, as well. Also, I guess I misunderstood the description, and thought it came with 2 bait hooks. However, after speaking with the CS dept at Palmyth, they said it only came with one, but extended me a $10 refund to purchase a second bait hook from another mfg, as they don’t sell them individually. All round extremely pleased with this trap and will be buying a second!

Caught a lot of crabs. Large and works.

Man this was a blast. I think that might be more about how fun crabbing is with young kids on a nice day, but the kit worked great. Only note is that to watch the depth of where you’re going and make sure you have enough rope. We had to get another rope to reach the further out areas where the better crabs were. But otherwise fantastic. Caught three keepers in 45 minutes, which was perfect for a novelty family outing!

It's a great trap. My first time crabbing and I caught more than 25 crabs in 4 hours. It works great but the quality doesn't seem like it would last more than a season or two. Pros : comes with - 50ft rope - Crab size measuring ruler - Hook/pin for the bait - Affordable - Lightweight - Easy to store Cons : - Quality doesn't seem it would last more than 2 seasons - can't leave it underwater overnight or for few hours(Not entirely a con since it's not meant to be left underwater overnight) I would definitely recommend this trap to those who are hobbyists like myself.

So far very good! Good quality net!

Haven’t used it yet. However it comes across as u finished as to the netting. The ropes were cauterized but the netting is frayed at both top and botttom ends of the trap. Also the top ring was not tied level so I had to adjust that by retying the ropes to proper lengths. I have one on order from Temu, comes as a pair for the same money. Will be interesting to see if they are worse.

This is a perfect crab trap. The entire product is well made, you can tell it’s going to last a long time. It was a lot of fun pulling it up to the surface and seeing a bunch of crabs in it.
