Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

Already happening! Out of the 200+ boats in TTT on Toledo this weekend I bet there will be at least 150 boats with some version of a red "trap" on deck.

Well so much for trying to find a good red trap in the fishing aisles. Another secret has been let out of the bag.

Love that trap! As stated above replace the hooks and you have a fish catcher.

It mimics red crawfish really well. But they'll hit just about any color under the right conditions.

They don't. It's a mystery.

Is it the same blank and same rattle? I assume notbecause it say's "hard knocker". Does that mean it has one big rattle like the "one knocker"?
