Every time I put mine out in Dulac, at least one comes up missing. Its seriously annoying. I busted some crabbers 2 weeks ago. I put mine out well past the end of their string one afternoon. Came out the next morning and found 3 of my traps smack dab in the middle of Grand Caillou. They were running their traps right there and I went and asked them about it. They said someone was running their traps too and they knew nothing about it. Trash gonna trash.

Only one solution, no float and a grappling hook. Not exactly legal but should eliminate anyone stealing the traps.

My cousin is an oysterman in Virginia Beach.

He trail-cams at least one boat a week on top of his cages. NC and VA boat numbers for all to see.

They can’t steal his cages.....too big.

But they will try to take his oysters. Good triploids too. Big......tasty....good ones.

Where on the island are you? I put out traps myself at the end of the island and haven't had any trouble.
