Eel Traps
I'm bored and was wondering if you guys have any ways of making an eel trap. Looking at the basic designs I'm thinking a Minnow trap could work just as well.
I figure I work right on the water so I can dump it in out back the day before I'm planning to go out.
Just something to throw around...thanx

Dad,
You can use a regular old minnow trap with an extension that goes in the middle, they work better that way.

dad,
Its just a peice of mesh, just like the rest of the minnow trap. Its abouta foot long and is round on both ends, you just clip it into the middle of the trap, where the two halfs go together.
