Herewith is an illustration of a crab and lobster pot, which consists of an openwork wicker basket, about 30 in. in diameter by 20in. high, with a strong bottom. At the top is a funnel 6 in. deep by 8 in. diameter on the outside, tapering to 6 in. on the inside. Stones are lashed to the bottom, inside, to sink the trap, and a strong line with cork floats, fixed at intervals to denote the position, is attached to the side.
