Wallisville Lake Project staff round up derelict crab traps

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Galveston District Park Rangers did their annual "derelict crab trap round-up," March 1, 2023, at the Wallisville Lake Project in Anahuac, Texas. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department allows the removal of traps once a year for a ten-day period starting on the third Friday in February. Any crab trap left in the water during that time is considered abandoned. If left unchecked, the abandoned traps can keep trapping crabs or other unintended prey for months, possibly years. They also pose a serious hazard to boaters and fishermen. U.S. Army video by Trevor Welsh.
