Handling Fee - Why???

Hey guys,

I wanted to post an update here about the handling fee that is charged on our traps. The 2.50 fee is for the packaging of the trap, and insurance that goes on the trap when it is shipped. These traps take a long time to build, and it would be very frustrating to have one damaged during shipping. With insurance, both you and I are protected from an accident that damages the trap. I very much appreciate the understanding and I thank all of you who have purchased a trap from me, and have sent others to buy from me. That's awesome!!! I really appreciate it, and I hope your still liking your traps.

 

God bless,

Mike

When you take a trip with Ed, all of your fishing equipment is supplied. He will furnish the trotlines, a custom built boat for trotlining, and bait.

From "old-men" to young kids - who doesn't love a HUGE catfish? This is truly a great environment for the WHOLE FAMILY, so be sure to bring them along.
 
Finally, a trip with Ed is one that you will NOT forget. From the story telling - to the fishing - you are sure to be entertained thoughout the whole trip. And oh yea....YOU WILL CATCH FISH!!!!

Testimonial - By Mike Smith (Owner / Operator of Reel Texas Outdoors)
 
Pictures don't do enough when describing a trip with Ed Snelson. My wife and I were lucky enough to get a trip with Ed from July 20-22, and we absolutely had a blast. We ended up catching about 413 lbs of catfish, and this was described as a "BAD" trip by Ed. I've head stories of well over 1000 lb of fish coming into Bill's Landing on Ed's boat, so I guess I do believe it was a "BAD" trip. However, to my wife and I it was excellent, as the average fisherman rarely sees 400 lbs of fish in a catch.
 
From the lodging to the fishing we had a great time, and I truly believe YOU will too. See some of our trip photos below - and book yourself a trip. I know you won't be dissapointed, and I GUARANTEE that you will catch fish!!!

Paypal is considered one of the safest ways to exchange money on the internet. For this reason, it is the sole way I accept and send money. The good news is that you DO NOT have to have a paypal account to send payments for traps. 

Simply checkout using paypal, and you will be directed to the paypal screen. Whenever you arrive click on the left side of the screen you will be able to submit payment via Credit Card without needing a paypal account.

Please email me if  you are having issues with it.

 

Thanks!
