The JL Proline traps are constructed with American-made 12-gauge
galvanized wire mesh as illustrated below.

The vinyl coating is fuse-bonded to the galvanized wire. 
This virtually eliminates cracking and separation.

 

 

The  JL Proline 2614BC Crab Trap is the  most popular model.

The 2210 model is available by special order.

 

 

 

  The 2614BC Model includes the following features:
 

  •   The trap is 26 by 26 inches and is 9-3/8 inches high.  The low profile design minimizes
       wasted space while providing storage for the mainline rope and floats.
     

  •  The trap has two 14-inch wide door openings that allow larger crab easier entry.
     

  •  The trap includes a 14 inch by 5-3/8 inch by 2 inch bait cage constructed with 1x2 inch
      galvanized mesh.  This larger mesh allows crab to feed slowly on the bait.  The slow
      feeding activity attracts more crab to the trap.
     

  •  The trap features a new, larger 10 inch by 20 inch lid opening for improved access when
      baiting the trap and removing crab.
     

  •  The trap is fastened with stainless steel hog rings.
     

  •  The one-way gates inside the 14-inch door openings are engineered to prevent a hang-up
      in the open position.
     

  •  The 2x4 inch wire mesh used to construct the trap reduces the impact on the resource by
      allowing more undersize crab to escape without being handled.
     

  •  The trap includes a bridle rope for easy rigging.

 

**  The JL Proline traps are currently legal for sport crabbing in Oregon waters.  
Under current regulations, use of these crab traps in California and
Washington requires a minor modification.
Check the current regulations for applicable requirements.  **
