The Guardian Lobster Trap retrofit is a simple, reliable and inexpensive on-demand solution. The Guardian is quick to rig and can be used on singles or or trawls in depths to over 50 fathoms. Guardians are designed to easily retrofit existing gear and use existing line and buoys if desired.
The Guardian Retrofits, paired with a Sub Sea Sonics AR4RT acoustic release, have become a preferred option among fishers who have recently conducted tests. This system is priced about 85% less than those of other leading manufacturers.
