Cut cable ties to remove

Unscrew to removeand screw on lid

A 125 mm Troll float is used as a subsurface float

Lift by the rope only and keep vertical

Rest the trap on the side of the boat on the bottom plate

Puncture the parcel-tape patch to spill excess water

If sediment above the patch, catch the water and sediment in the 5-litre jug and transfer to a 2-litre bottle and label

The bottom trap will have more sediment than the top !

Traps @ 1, 2, 6, and 7 are likely to have large amounts of sediment

There are 2 traps at the top and two at the bottom = 4 traps per line

= total of 40 traps
