ABSTRACT:
A device for retrieving minnows individually from a minnow bucket includes a handle and a tubular trap pivotally connected to the handle. The interior of the trap is large enough to accommodate only one minnow, and one of its ends is open so that a minnow will swim into it, while its other end is closed so that the minnow does not swim through the trap. The handle has a gripping portion and two arms which diverge from the gripping portion. The tubular trap is pivotally connected to the arms adjacent the open end of the trap so that when the trap is lifted off the bottom of the bucket, it will assume a vertical deposition with its open end presented upwardly so that the minnow in the trap cannot escape. Retaining means are provided for holding the trap in a compact storage position between the arms of the handle.
