Frabill Black Pinfish Rectangular Trap - 18" x 12" x 8"

The Frabill Black Pinfish Rectangular Trap is purpose-built for anglers and live bait operators who need reliable, efficient baitfish collection. Whether you're working coastal flats, marshes, or shallow estuaries, this trap delivers consistent performance for capturing live pinfish and other small baitfish species.

Built from durable black mesh, the Frabill Black Pinfish Rectangular Trap features a compact design that minimizes escape while effectively funneling baitfish into a central chamber. The trap's weight of 3 pounds keeps it anchored in moderate current without becoming cumbersome to deploy or retrieve, making it easy to transport in a tackle bag or boat storage locker.

This trap excels in shallow-water environments where cast nets are impractical or where fish are spooky and hard to approach. Kayakers, flats anglers, and charter captains rely on it to replenish live bait without the physical toll of repeated casting. Simply bait the trap with crushed fish, squid, or commercial pellets, submerge it in 2–10 feet of water, and allow 20–45 minutes for baitfish to enter.
