Crawfish & Crab Trap Cage – Freshwater & Saltwater
Lightweight Crawfish & Crab Trap Cage – Freshwater & Saltwater
Whether you're setting traps in a quiet freshwater lake, a tidal river, a coastal inlet, or a rice paddy, this versatile crawfish and crab cage trap is built to deliver consistent results. Made from durable PP (polypropylene), it combines a smart reverse-spine entry design with rugged, pressure-resistant construction so you can haul in crawfish, crab, shrimp, eel, and turtle with ease. Made in Mainland China.
Key Features
- Escape-Proof Reverse Spine Entry: Once inside, crawfish, crab, shrimp, eel, and turtle can't find their way back out. The reverse-spine funnel structure locks your catch in, maximising your haul on every outing.
- Extra-Large Opening: The generously sized entrance maximises the catch rate by making it easy for target species to enter while the internal spine structure keeps them secure.
- Tough PP Construction: Built from pressure-resistant polypropylene that holds its shape in both freshwater and saltwater conditions, standing up to currents, tides, and extended submersion without warping or degrading.
- Portable & Easy to Deploy: Lightweight build and compact form factor make transport and setup a breeze — ideal for bank fishing, kayak trips, or wading into rice fields. Retrieval is straightforward and quick.
- Universally Applicable: Engineered to perform reliably across a wide range of aquatic environments — ponds, lakes, streams, rivers, coastal regions, and rice fields — in both freshwater and saltwater settings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this crawfish trap be used in both freshwater and saltwater environments?
A: Yes! The trap is made from corrosion-resistant PP (polypropylene), making it fully suitable for use in both freshwater settings like ponds, lakes, and rivers, as well as saltwater coastal and tidal environments. It retains its shape and structural integrity across all aquatic conditions.
Q: What types of aquatic species can this cage trap catch?
A: This versatile crab and crawfish cage trap is designed to catch a wide variety of aquatic species, including crawfish (crayfish), crabs, shrimp, eels, and turtles. The extra-large opening and reverse-spine funnel entry make it effective for all these species.
Q: How does the escape-proof reverse spine work?
A: The reverse spine is an inward-facing funnel structure positioned at the trap entrance. It allows aquatic creatures to easily swim or crawl in through the wide opening, but the backward-pointing spines make it extremely difficult for them to find and navigate back out, keeping your catch secure until retrieval.
Q: Which size should I choose?
A: The smaller option (approx. 31.5 × 19 × 19 cm, 520 g) is ideal for crawfish, shrimp, and smaller crabs in tighter spaces like streams or rice fields. The larger option (approx. 50 × 19 × 19 cm, 680 g) provides a bigger capture area and is better suited for larger crabs, eels, and turtle in open water like lakes and coastal zones.
