300' #8 Solid Braid Snooded Trot Line with 3/16" Snoods, 6' Spacing

Item #156

Legal in Virginia, (300'L is the maximum allowed in VA for Recreational crabbers.) Now Recreational crabbers in Virginia can crab "Maryland Style." Search www.youtube.com for a video on how to use a trot line (or snood line) and take some friends out crabbing and have some fun! And for the Maryland Crabbers... this length is the perfect size for use in small creeks. They can be crabbed singularly or hook 4 together to make the 1200' maximum length allowed in Maryland waters.

That's approx. 50 baits on a single 300' line (or approx. 200 baits on 4 (300' lines or 1200' total). Snoods are made out of 3/16" shock cord x 6" L. Order 2 or more and save some money.

SNOODED HAND LINES

Snood lines are not just for Commercial and Recreational crabbers ANYMORE! If you ever used a hand line, you can use a snooded hand line.  It's as easy as 1,2,3…
  1. Unwind the crab line and tie the end with the handle to either your boat, bridge or pier.
  2. Just put a chicken neck in the snoods ,put the snood tight against the neck
  3. and throw the it in the water!

Bait your line by putting a chicken neck in each of the snoods, put the snood tight against the neck and throw the end of the line with the weight in the water.  When the line gets tight (The crabs will be feeding on your bait) slowly pull in the line in (hand over hand slowly) until you bring the crab to the surface and dip the crab with your net (it's that easy even your kids will have fun doing it!)  And you can even catch more than 1 crab at a time (because each 15' line comes with 3 snoods attached and the 30' line has 6 snoods).  You can have your own snooded hand line to use on your boat or from any pier or bridge. 

15' Snooded Hand Line

The 15' snooded hand line is perfect for family fun. Use it by connecting it to your boat or your favorite pier or bridge. Each 15' snooded line comes with 2 snoods, a 2 oz weight, and a PVC handle.
