If you own the sailboat or a power boat in British Columbia’s West Coast, then most likely you fish for prawns and crab. The two new products that British Columbia boater, Jim and Kari are presenting at their booth at this year’s Vancouver International boat show are drawing huge interest.
The Flex Fold Combo Trap effectively catches either crabs or prawns with the same great features as the individual Flex Fold Traps.
The ALL IN ONE Combo Trap has the versatility to quickly and easily be converted to catch either crabs or prawns. The only effective Combo Trap on the market, it looks and folds the same as the Flex Fold Prawn and Crab Traps but is two-in-one, saving room and money.
