Have any chicken mesh? Cut a rectangle and make it into a cylinder. Make a cone and push it in backwards. Make a small door on the back and either cable ties or thin wire to hold it together. Chuck some meat into a sock and face it down current so when thet swim up they go right in.
How I've always made it
lace all the joins with s/s MIG wire,that should be free:evilish:
We used to fish for them on a pole with about 5 foot of line and some cat food ( Jelly Meat was the best brand ) inside a piece of pantyhose .
Their teeth get caught in the stocking and you just haul them out of the water .
I spent a lot of time as a youngster doing that .
Good memories :)
Yea i can catch them no worrys but with kids being in bed at 7 usually and it not being dark till 930 thought we could set a trap one evening and pick it up in the morning.
Might keep one.
Will have to hide it from the wife tho lol
Bait - Marmite in a 35mm film canister, cut a couple of holes in the sides of it.
DO NOT use vegemite.
Yep no danger of me using vegemite, might catch orstraylyins.
Might make one myself, plenty of materials about here.
