ABSTRACT:
Synthetic crustacean attractant compositions useful as bait for crustaceans, especially crabs and lobsters. An attractant is sorbed on a solid carrier. The composition is in either powder form and placed in a permeable package or is formed into a conveniently shaped pellet. The composition is then placed in a trap or attached to a trot line, and the trap or trot line is submerged in an aquatic environment. The attractant which is sorbed on the surface of the solid carrier is in equilibrium with attractant in solution about the composition. The attractant in solution acts to lure the crustaceans. The controlled release process of the invention provides an amount of attractant in solution to lure crustaceans for days. The composition is simple and cost effective to manufacture, has an indefinite shelf life without refrigeration and is very easy to handle.
