ABSTRACT:
A joinable two-section molded plastic cage-like enclosure having by a top and bottom member with a peripheral side wall therebetween. The top and bottom members have an elliptical plan shape. Two oppositely positioned converging entrance passages extend from the side wall to the interior of the enclosure and provide a continuous firm surface to support the entry of shellfish into the trap enclosure. Removable blocking members at the interior end of the passages permit selection of the size of the trap opening and prevent the escape of shellfish from the passages. Bait holders are mounted within the enclosure between the top and bottom members substantially opposite the entrance passages.
