Nets & More Catfish Trap – 30-inch Wide, 7 ft Long with Nyglass Hoops, 5 Hoops, Made in USA

Overview

The Nets & More Catfish Trap is a purpose built 30 inch wide by 7 foot long hoop net designed for reliable catfishing across rivers, lakes, and ponds. Made in the USA from #15 nylon netting, it features five Nyglass hoops that help the trap keep a crisp shape even when water flows or fish tug at the opening. A petroleum based netcoat coats the surface to improve abrasion resistance and guard against rot, so you can focus on fishing while gear holds up over time.
