This video takes a long time to get interesting. Skip to past an hour to see the most interesting stuff.

I used a mesh trap this time. It did not go well. The crabs were able to sneak in through holes in the mesh.

One nice feature of this trap is it folds down flat and is easy to store but I hate the mesh. Too fragile and too difficult to extract the crabs.
