ABSTRACT:
A lobster trap launch steadying device adapted for use with lobster traps that will reliably locate the position of attachment of the warp rope used for launching the trap into the sea so the trap will be steadied in its descent to the sea bottom so that the trap will be landed in an upright manner on the sea bottom. Upon a quick pull of the warp rope, the rope will be detached from the snap-clip device and the trap pull upwardly from one of its end portions so that it can be easily landed over the side of the boat. The snap-clip lever part is biased to a closed position by an elastic tension cord that is fixed to one of the mesh bars rearwardly up the full device. The device itself is assembled in clip fashion to the mesh top of the lobster trap.
