<h3>Frabill: Trusted Fishing Gear Since 1938</h3><p><strong>Frabill</strong> has been equipping anglers for success since 1938, building a reputation as one of the most reliable names in the fishing industry. Headquartered in Jackson, Wisconsin, the brand understands that great fishing starts long before the first cast — it begins with having the right gear, properly prepared, every single time.</p><p>Whether you're working open saltwater or drilling holes through a frozen lake, Frabill's philosophy is straightforward: a well-equipped angler is a successful angler. That commitment has driven decades of product development across bait management, landing nets, ice fishing shelters, and marine accessories that serious fishermen count on in demanding conditions.</p><h3>Bait Management Built for Performance</h3><p>One of Frabill's defining strengths is its comprehensive approach to keeping live bait healthy and effective. <a href="/13922-frabill-livewell-aerator-pumps-200624">Frabill livewell aerator pumps</a> are engineered to convert coolers and livewells into oxygen-rich environments, ensuring baitfish remain lively and active from the dock to the strike zone. The brand's Aqua-Life® aerator line, for example, is specifically designed and tested for both freshwater and saltwater baitfish, offering flexible power options to suit any fishing setup.</p><p>For anglers who need a complete solution on the water, <a href="/13922-frabill-bait-tanks-200125">Frabill bait tanks</a> provide durable, purpose-built housing that pairs seamlessly with their aeration systems. From compact 8-quart boxes to large-capacity bait stations, these products reflect Frabill's understanding that keeping bait alive is mission-critical to a productive day on the water.</p><p>Frabill also offers a broad range of <a href="/13922-frabill-livewell-aerator-pumps-202186">livewell aerator pump accessories and systems</a> designed for anglers who fish in varied environments — from inland bass lakes to nearshore saltwater flats. Each aerator undergoes rigorous testing to deliver consistent, reliable performance across multiple pump settings and power configurations.</p><h3>A Legacy of Innovation Across Fishing Disciplines</h3><p>Beyond bait management, Frabill's catalog spans landing nets — including the Trophy Haul™ series and purpose-built floating wade nets — as well as full ice fishing systems including portable shelters, tip-ups, rods, and cold-weather accessories. This breadth makes Frabill a one-stop brand for anglers who fish year-round and across multiple techniques.</p><ul><li><strong>Established heritage:</strong> Over 85 years of trusted performance in the fishing industry</li><li><strong>Broad product range:</strong> Bait management, landing nets, and ice fishing gear under one brand</li><li><strong>Fresh &amp; saltwater coverage:</strong> Products tested and designed for both inland and offshore fishing environments</li><li><strong>Rigorous quality standards:</strong> Each product is stress-tested to meet the demands of serious, repeat-use anglers</li></ul><p>For anglers who refuse to leave success to chance, Frabill delivers the preparation, reliability, and innovation needed to fish confidently — whatever the season, whatever the water.</p>

Product Details

The Frabill Torpedo Trap is the number one selling live bait trap for good reason—it delivers proven performance when you need to catch fresh minnows and other small baitfish. Unlike bargain traps designed to meet a price point, the Torpedo Trap is engineered specifically for reliable bait collection.

Key Features:

  • Galvanized steel construction resists rust and provides long-lasting durability in freshwater environments
  • Generous 10" x 9.75" x 9" size provides ample interior space for bait to enter and move around
  • Torpedo-shaped design with dual funnel entries allows minnows to swim in easily but makes escape difficult
  • Wide mesh openings allow proper water flow while securely containing baitfish
  • Easy-access top door for quick bait removal without fighting with funnel openings
  • Compact design is easy to transport and deploy from shore, dock, or boat

Simply bait the trap with bread, crackers, or commercial bait, secure it in shallow water near vegetation or structure, and check it after a few hours. The Torpedo Trap's proven design has been catching minnows, small perch, and other baitfish for anglers for years, making it an essential piece of gear for anyone who prefers fresh live bait.

Great pricing and availability offered.

Only a low start because I am not a boater, nor know boaters.

Would have been nice for my purchase to be shipped in 1 instead of 2 shipments. Just a little inconvenient as 1 arrived 3 days after the other. Not a big deal just inconvenient for me at the time.

Great website. Easy to use.

Fast shipping. Products as described.

Great parts fast shipping .
