Caught a huge snapping turtle in about an hour. Only negative is he was so big and you have to hold the door open to get them out. We zip tied the door open so we could safely dump the turtle into a bucket to relocate
The trap was shipped the day after I ordered it. It has already captured several huge soft-shelled turtles that were decimating the duck population. Excellent tool for the purpose.
I put this trap at the edge of my pond the first day i got it. I caught one 30 lb snapping turtle in 0ne hour. I caught the 2nd 40 lb the next day. I baited with sardines. Excellent trap.
