    plastic bottle fish trap. what I caught.

    Pretty simple. Just cut the top portion of a bottle and invert it. Like I did. Drilled holes to run a rope through it. I found this bottle at a creek I visit and it gave me the idea. You can use a bigger bottle.

    plastic bottle fish trap. what I caught.
