Bubble style fish traps

[Joe Rice]

Has anyone tried using one of the spherical style fish traps like Tank Matez or NYOS and, if so, how well did it work for you?

The club has 2 of these for loaning out. I've caught a few different fish with them.

I have a Tank Mates. It takes a while for the fish to get comfortable going in there. Some just won’t. I’ve had success though.

I have one, still sitting in the box unopened lol. At the same time an aqua medic trap popped up here and I bought that too. It works so good I never opened the tankmatez trap

I’ve used the tank mates one and find you need to over size it or the fish feel skittish of entering it. Maybe a few slots or holes could fix it but luckily the fish I wanted to get out was the bully so he kept everyone else away from it. Took about 5 days of feeding in the bubble to get him to go in there. Think the hunger took over the fear

I made my own and I caught the damsel

Do you have instructions how to make your own because I’d love to make one myself and save myself a couple of dollars lol

The club has a couple to loan out. If they are being used, you can borrow mine
