Crab Trap

Anybody know of a good/easy/cheap diy crab trap, maybe have a link?

well, i'm a super noob, but what worked with my crab crisis was a simple " glass trap " , which is essentially a glass, any glass that is deep enough so that the crab cant scamper out of it once it falls in . you have to disturb part of the sand bed to bury the glass so that it's opening would be somewhat at level with the bed, or even slightly raised, then you put food in it - i used pellets - and in the morning you'll find your crab!
sorry to the older members if my advice sux. heh heh
