FAQ
Is a heavier crayfish pot better?

Why does this pot include sacrificial anodes?
Sacrificial anodes help protect the galvanized steel frame from corrosion, extending the life of the pot in saltwater.
Is this suitable for recreational fishing?
Absolutely. It’s ideal for recreational fishers while also being built to a commercial-grade standard for long-term durability.
Can I use it from a kayak or jet ski?
Yes. The pot is suitable for boats, larger fishing kayaks and jet skis. Always ensure you can safely deploy and retrieve the approximately 9kg weight.

Yes. The package includes the crayfish pot, professional bait box, 30m rope and oversized float, so it’s ready to fish after adding bait.
Is the bait box removable?
Yes. The UV-resistant bait box is removable for quick refilling and easy cleaning after each trip.
Will the galvanized steel rust?
Galvanized steel offers excellent corrosion resistance. Rinsing with fresh water after use and the fitted sacrificial anodes help maximise the lifespan of the pot.
