ABSTRACT:
A trap for fish, crabs and the like, characterized by a substantial portion thereof being flexible and collapsible for increasing capacity while facilitating storage, safety and handling. The trap comprises an enclosure defined by a large flexible net secured to and communicating with a smaller and substantially rigid base carrying a bait well. Affixed to the net is flotation means whereby the net expands upwardly while under water increasing capacity while properly aligning the base on the underwater floor. Means are provided in the enclosure for baiting the bait well, for entrance of fish, crabs and the like and for emptying the trap. Location and retrieval means are affixed to the trap for retrieval, preferably base first.
