Fishtrap cover
« on: Jan 05, 2013, 06:09 AM »
I need to find a cover for my FishTrap Pro. Neither our local GM or Dicks has them. Who has a good deal on them? I can't see paying the crazy price that some advertise for.  :o

Might check out a company that makes Tarps. Like the ones that make Covers for Cars or Car Shelters. Give them the measurements and see what they would charge.  O r possibly buy a Large Swamp cooler cover and modify it.

The fishing was good; it was the catching that was bad.

Baitbucket
Where did your wife find the material? with my luck it was not from a place we have in Michigan.
I have been wanting to make a cover for my kenai using vinyl. This material looks like it is more flexable allowing it to fit snugger around the shanty.
