Review on πŸ› Efficiently Capture Pesky Bristle Worms with our Bristle Worm Trap by Rebecca Porter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Some decent design choices but don't really work

I like that it's a hard plastic that sinks without the need for additional rocks or sand. I also like that the bait case protects the bait and keeps the bristleworms from just feasting on it. I don't like that very few worms got in and even fewer were left. I saw 2 worms go in and only 1 stayed there when I removed the trap. I made a homemade trap planting pellets in and it wasn't that effective. I took this trap and planted raw shrimp on it and received such a strong stubble feeding response (worms sticking their heads out of every nook and cranny) that I decided to replicate my homemade raw shrimp trap. In order not to be unfounded, I made a comparison. I set up my homemade raw shrimp trap and this trap was baited with raw shrimp and waited about 3 hours (about 3pm to 6pm). In that time, this trap caught 1 bristleworm and the homemade trap caught about 9. I repeated the process overnight. I saw 1 worm in this trap before I went to bed but when I got up it had run away. In my homemade trap there were 7 bristleworms. So in about 15 hours this trap removed 1 worm while my homemade trap removed about 15+. I would recommend getting some old paraphernalia, 1/4" RODI tubing, bio liner, some super glue and making your own.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • I won't say anything
