Review: Trap is as described, great product! - I bought this for my boyfriend and he loves it. The Frabill Torpedo Crawfish Trap is made from heavy-duty steel mesh. He was impressed with its overall quality and durability. The trap is well-constructed. The design allows crawfish to climb right in. The only drawback we found is that the holes are too large, allowing smaller crawfish to escape. Overall it is a wonderful trap for the price. It's easy to set up, clean, and functions properly. Review: Awesome quality!! Thanks for a great product - I ordered 5 of the crawfish traps. They feel solid!! The vinyl covering the steel expanded metal is thick. I won't be using them for a few months but I can tell they are quality. The only issue I can foresee is the clasp. When you connect both pieces together and put the clasp on, at a certain angle with minimal effort, the pod can come off the clasp. This occurs because the gap on the end is a bit too wide. The solution to this issue to is this. Use a pair of pliers and crimp it a bit more so the trap can't wiggle loose off the clasp. Even with this issue, IT IS AN AWESOME PRODUCT TO CATCH CRAWFISH!! ****UPDATE***** I was finally able to use the traps. It worked great!!! In one trap after soaking for a few hours had 21 crawfish. Just so you are aware, crawfish is able to escape out of the trap with some effort. If you asked me if I would recommend these traps, my answer would be YYYYYEEEEESSSSSSS!!! **********ANOTHER UPDATE ******* Went on another trip to Eastern Sierra for 7 days. These traps worked great!!! My son and I filled a 5 gallon bucket in 4.5 hours. Money well spent on these traps. I also had an opportunity to use a square crawfish trap with a single entrance. I think it sells for like $20-$25. Those were a pain if you have to throw the traps instead of dropping them. These cylinder traps always land perfect!! ## Features - Frabill | Trusted By Anglers Since 1938 - Two-piece design simplifies baiting and catch removal - Torpedo shape works in current or calm waters | Black vinyl-dipped steel provides camouflage - Dimensions: 10" x 9.75" x 9" | Includes spring clip for closure ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003JK6PVQ | | Best Sellers Rank | #4,144 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #1 in Fishing Bait Traps | | Brand | FRABILL | | Brand Name | FRABILL | | Color | Multi | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 7,781 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00082271112729 | | Included Components | FRABILL 1272 Fishing Equipment Nets & Traps | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 10"L x 9.75"W x 9"H | | Item Type Name | FRABILL 1272 Fishing Equipment Nets & Traps | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | Frabill | | Manufacturer Part Number | 1272 | | Material | Blend | | Material Type | Blend | | Model Number | 1272 | | Number of Pieces | 2 | | Power Source | hand_powered | | Product Dimensions | 10"L x 9.75"W x 9"H | | Style | 10" Dlx Black Torpedo Trap | | Style Name | 10" Dlx Black Torpedo Trap | | Target Species | Crawfish | | UPC | 082271112729 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** FRABILL - **Color:** Multi - **Item Weight:** 16 ounces - **Material:** Blend - **Number of Pieces:** 2 - **Product Dimensions:** 10"L x 9.75"W x 9"H - **Style:** 10" Dlx Black Torpedo Trap - **Target Species:** Crawfish - **UPC:** 082271112729 - **Unit Count:** 1 Count ## Images ![Torpedo Crawfish Trap | Heavy-Duty Steel Mesh - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71DGbNMlzvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the difference between the crawfish trap and the minnow trap -- will the minnow trap also work for crawfish?** A: The openings on the minnow trap are too small for crawfish. **Q: What are the measurements for the entrance hole on the ends?** A: 3 1/2 inches wide **Q: What do you recommend as a clip to hold it shut?** A: the clip is included. attach the rope to the clip. **Q: Does it float or sink?** A: It will sink but depending on the current you will want to add some weights to the trap to keep it down ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Trap is as described, great product! *by B***E on August 23, 2025* I bought this for my boyfriend and he loves it.

The mesh and the frame are sturdy and the size is fine for crayfish--a lot of crayfish. I'm not fond of the way the two halves go together, mainly held in place by a large safety pin sort of clip which is a devil to open and close when wet. I may end up fabricating my own clips for it. My usage was an attempt to capture and identify the crayfish species that colonized my garden pond many years ago, continuing to survive wash outs, turtles, and water snakes. Amazing little critters. ## Frequently Bought Together - Frabill Torpedo Crawfish Trap | Heavy-Duty Steel Mesh - Frabill Flow Troll Bait Buckets - Frabill Torpedo Minnow Trap | Heavy-Duty Steel Mesh | Two-Piece Minnow Trap --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/1546611-torpedo-crawfish-trap-heavy-duty-steel-mesh](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/1546611-torpedo-crawfish-trap-heavy-duty-steel-mesh) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-08-13*
