archdog Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Hi, does anyone know where I can buy (or find plans to make) a trap for freshwater eels that is legal to use in public waters? Ie, won't trap and kill platypus/turtles, but will still reasonably catch eels? You might think I'm crazy, but I love a feed of eel every now and then! Thanks!

Paikea Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 My Dad used to love catching Golden Eels and smoking them. He just used a hand line and garden worms, fished the creeks in the National Park and golf course dams. Caught enough to keep him happy. As to traps I think you would be in trouble if caught with one. Cheers Paikea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
