    Quality A+

    It is well made and easy to set. It just needs a small bait door to be perfect.

    Caught a snapper in less than 12 hours

    By Jennifer on 07/12/2019

    I had suspected I had a snapping turtle in my pond because one of my ducks had it's flipper chomped which ended up costing me $700 in vet bills. I anxiously waited for this trap and set it out and the first night I had a HUGE snapper. Baited it a chicken breast I let sit in the sun for hours and put it in a mesh bag and tied it to the back of the trap. My only complaint is that I wish the back side opened because it was quite difficult to open the trap door and get the turtle out without getting bit myself. Also, a hook or clamp to attach your bait to would be handy to on the back side.
