South bend crab trap bait cage

I have not made it to the wharf yet and I have spent an hour and a half on this cheap mess. I would have taken it back, but they were sold out of everything else....with good reason. You open the cellophane and find the thinnest and cheapest string holding this thing together. it's tied together like a marionette that's been in a windstorm. there's no way to unwind the spaghetti mixture and make a crab cube out of this thing. Best you can do is completely tear it apart and throw every bit of the string away. then when you read the instructions, they make absolutely no sense at all. you have to pull up a YouTube video and luckily a guy figured it out and passed on the secret. Even after you've put it all together, it's a piece of crap. If you own 40 zip ties, and that's exactly what it took, you can put the cube all together. then you need to have some sort of nylon cord and create the ability for the doors to lay down, the top to stay up, and then the doors to lift. now you could just zip tie your bait inside, like zip tie a fish through the gills and that would work, but I just went ahead and took a suet feeder and zip tied in the bottom in case I wanted to use something other than a fish head. I can only say this is a last resort to buy and you need time and a lot of extra stuff at home to make a crab trap out of it. I haven't been out with it yet so I don't know if it actually catches crabs, but it better at this point! none the less, I just want to warn you, The first time you put it over the side, it will never make it to the bottom without completely falling apart and you no longer own a $10 crab trap, unless you go to the trouble to modify it.
