A bumper haul....

Got up to 9 guys today, then ran out of traps/carriers so called it a day. It was almost like shooting fish in a barrel today, no literally I had the traps baited with sardines! There are a couple of big males that I knew would bust out of the carriers so brought a big wire transfer cage for them... as you can see below, the big fella never stood a chance!
My last catch I put the trap on the wall as this is where the guys seemed to feed most and felt safest as they could zip back through the fence... didn't help them any. This black guy pushed ahead of the other fellow to get to the food and sealed his fate :+}
Here are 5 of the carriers and the big transfer cage ready for transport....
