Our products help lobstermen catch and keep more lobsters

To truly fish effectively, a trap must accomplish two important and basic goals:

  • Land properly (right-side-up) on the ocean floor
  • Hold a lobster (a keeper) once it has entered the trap

The problem is, these two goals do not always happen automatically. Through extensive research, R. Knight & Sons discovered that traps often do not land properly, and that lobsters are capable of exiting a trap after they've entered it.

The solutions to these problems are the Steady Clip and the Hoop Gate. Click the video to watch the Steady Clip in action.
