Ship-to-Any-State Bait Traps
Ship-to-Any-State Bait Traps
Fishing trap regulations vary by state — some states restrict the size of bait openings, which means our standard pre-cut traps may not be legal everywhere. That's why we created our Uncut Series: the same pro-grade traps you love, shipped without pre-cut bait openings so you can cut them to your local legal size.
How It Works
Our uncut traps ship with no pre-cut bait openings. The only openings on the trap are the doors used to remove your catch — these are built into the trap and are not entry points for bait fish.
To use your trap, simply cut your own bait openings to your state's legal required size. We recommend Kobalt 7" diagonal cutting pliers, available at Lowe's — they cut through the wire cleanly and easily.
