the pelt man Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 CRAYFISH TRAPS I bring some back every trip i make to Norway for use on local lakes & up the river which I pest control on. They also do some Crab Traps but not got any yet, will have this weekend as wife is getting some for me before she comes back. Has anyone seen this type in the UK so i can get them more easly, & at what price. They work out at £3.50 each from Norway. They are great as they are colapsable.

browningstalker10g Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 the american invader crayfish is fair game although you need to apply for a licence to catch them, im not sure who you have to write though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flash Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 all you need to do is speak to your local enviroment agency officer and it should be fine. flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

new to the flock Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Peltman did you get an email order address for your traps? NTTF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the pelt man Posted March 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 NTTF found out they are imported to Norway from China. The shop in Norway is called Biltema if you serch the web for that name, look on there site & you can obtain all there suppliers details. You might have to import about 500 or so thats why i havent got any yet. Maybe if enough people post on this forum who would like some it would be worth ordering them up. could always e-bay what i dont want, its just the outlay for them in the first place. What do you think Regards The Pelt Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
