I have been looking for rules on catching bait in florida saltwater. However there is a section for catching bait in freshwater but not for saltwater on the f&g websites. Need to know about using a trap to catch bait in saltwater. Can use use a common minnow trap with small wire mesh to catch bait in saltwater. Do you put a bouy on it like a crab trap? Can I use a crab trap to catch bait fish? If Im not trying to catch crab with it does it need to have the escapre rings? What really says what a trap is for and what type it is? There are so many styles what says what type is what type and can use use any of them to catch bait? It says you cant catch lobster with a trap for recreation but can I use a trap to catch bait fish that might catch a lobster? Do you tag and bouy a bait trap like a crab trap or lobster pot? What about mesh width? Does a bait trap have to have large width like a crab trap 1.5"? Please dont direct me to a link. Respond with info you know yourself or cut and paist what you have. Thanks
