How To

How to Build a Fish Trap To Survive

A fish trap is a device designed to catch fish. It is made up of two parallel bars, the "trays", that form a funnel-shaped shape. The water flows into one trap, and then settles on the bottom of first tray. This causes the water level to rise. As the water rises higher, it falls through the second bar, allowing the trapped fish to swim out.

Fish traps are an ancient invention that was originally used to catch salmon. These traps still function today. However, they can also be used to catch freshwater catfish like bass and carp.

You can make your fish trap yourself if you have access to a large enough pond. To line the trap's interior, you will need some type of material. If you don’t have enough space, you can order a commercial fishtrap kit online. These kits usually come with everything you need except for the materials to construct the trap itself.

Here are some guidelines to follow if you decide to build your own fishtrap.

  • You must ensure that the sides of the trap do not give way to water.
  • Make sure you choose a location that is well-lit so the sun can warm the water.
  • For the trap's bottom, use a smooth surface such as concrete or stone. Sand and gravel particles tend to gravitate to rough surfaces.
  • Keep the area around the trap free of debris so that there won't be any obstacles for the fish to get caught in.

Once you have built the fish trap, place it near the edge. If the fish escape, don't panic. The trap should be left alone for a few more days to allow them to return in. There's no need to clean the trap because it should stay wet. You can later remove any dead fish that are found in the pond.
