the traps look good and for a 138 bucks shipped I would be saving on gas going to NB to pick them up..........

They look like crab POTS to me. @ $28 apiece, that aint such a bad deal. Aren't crab pots like $40 or $50 at the bait shops? Or.... if you have a lot of time on your hands, you can build your own.

Delaware's pricing is right along those lines as well.

I'm using Eagle Claw traps. They can be transported flat with floats to the side. Assembly and baiting takes less than a minute. Cannot help with price as my brother is a fishing equipment distributer in PA. Had no s&h as I picked them up while visiting up north. Nice heavy duty, no chicken wire.
