More Pics.

Same paddle I picked up.  I'd tell you how well it works if I could ever get on the water with the boat. 

Those Castable Crab Traps you pictured can be fun to mess around with.  I sometimes keep one in our RV and my son likes to chuck them out from shore or off a dock when we're staying near a Bay.  I think the Danielson one is a knock-off of the Crab Hawk, which is better quality, but they both do pretty much the same thing.  When casting from shore, they are easy to lose, If it gets hung up when you're reeling it in, bye bye.  I lost two of them the last time we tried it.

I don't mess with the castable traps from my Kayak.  They are definitely easy to transport, but to use one, you have to hold your position and crank it up pretty frequently.  I prefer just using regular crab traps as you can drop them to soak, go fishing, and pick up your trap on the way back to the dock.  The standard Danielson cage style traps are only about $15 at Bi-Mart and work great.  They are kind of bulky but they are square so you can stack one or two of them on the back or bow of your yak and bungee them in place.

Awesome,  thank you for the information...  You saved me a lot of headaches along with dollars.
