FISH TRAPPING TIPS
Fish Traps should be placed in the water with the entrance of the trap facing downstream. As the fish swim upstream, the special funnel design of the trap doors directs the fish to swim into the trap. They are trapped before they know it. In some fast running streams, it may be necessary to weigh the trap down with one or two rocks. It is also helpful to attach a line from the trap to a buoy or to anything secure on the shore. Fish traps can be baited, but it is not necessary. A can of smelling cat food with holes punched into it works nicely
