Customer Reviews for Tomahawk 404R Rigid Turtle Live Trap up to 100 lbs.

The trap is not quite what I had expected. The outer cage seems to be fine. The trap door is hard to set. You have to reach inside to pull bar up. The latch is rather flimsey and the trip plate needs a lot a work. Trips way to easy. Have had to reset the trap four times and without a turtle in it. Would not recommend this trap.

Set the trap 3 times only to find it closed next morning. Took it to my shop and did some adjustment then back to the pond. Next 3 days I caught 3 huge turtles and 2 the size of a kitchen plate. You will have to gently lower it into position but If you adjust it, it is great!

Awesome trap. Caught two right away. I just had to adjust the hook for proper tension on the release and it was ready to go.

We trapped two huge snapping turtles the day after putting the trap out. I was skeptical but it was easy to use and worked great

Hung a raw chicken leg with zip-ties and our elusive snapping turtle was captured in the first 15-minutes! In spite of the violent ripping, the chicken leg remained secured, but most of the flesh was gone. Approximately 20-Lbs and it tried escaping by straining against the trap-door, but the trap more than held its own.

So far used it 8 times and caught 9 huge snapping turtles...it's easy to use and set...heavy duty trap that allows me to catch and remove the turtles safety..it works really good..looks like it will last a life time...
