Bait Container
Smarter Baiting - Bigger Catches - Lower Costs
What is the Bait Container?
The Bait Container is a timed release system that protects lobster bait from predators and the elements until it matters most. By releasing bait only when lobsters are most active (typically at night) it increases catch efficiency while cutting bait use by 50–75%. It can also be used to recharge traps with fresh bait during longer soaks, keeping them productive for extended periods. Built from durable, marine-grade materials, it keeps bait secure and operates at depths of up to 183m (100 fathoms), ensuring reliability in all conditions. This smarter, eco-friendly approach reduces costs, minimises waste and supports sustainable fishing, helping you catch more with less.
How It Works
Step 1 - Load the Bait
Place 25%–50% of your usual bait into the bait bag. This reduced amount is all that’s needed for maximum effectiveness while cutting costs and waste. Insert the bag into the Bait Container.
Step 2 - Close the Bait Container
Rotate the Bait Container shut to keep the bait protected from predators and the environment until release.
Step 3 - Baiting
At your set time, the container opens automatically, releasing the bait bag when lobsters are most active, optimising catch rates while reducing trips to sea.
Smarter Rebaiting - Without Leaving the Dock 🦞
With the Bait Container, you can rebait your creel or trap remotely, no need to head back out to sea. Simply load the Bait Container with bait, close it to begin the countdown timer, and it will automatically open at your chosen time.
If poor weather, rough seas, or a storm keeps you ashore, you can still rebait your traps during that period, ensuring they continue fishing effectively even when you can’t get out. This means you can keep your gear working longer, cut fuel costs, and avoid unnecessary trips offshore while maintaining bait freshness and maximising catch potential.
Reduce Bait Useage 💰
Traditional fishing methods often rely on large amounts of bait that spoil quickly or get eaten by non-target species. The Bait Container changes that. By protecting and precisely timing bait release, you’ll need just 25–50% of your usual bait, cutting waste and cost while keeping lobsters feeding when it matters most. Less bait used means lower expenses, less environmental impact, and more sustainable fishing, without compromising results.
THE ONLINE PORTAL
The Portal is your control centre. Here you:
-
Set up to 4 custom time modes (exact times, or timed delays after closing a container)
-
Monitor system usage
THE HUB
The Hub connects your Bait Containers to the Online Portal. Every time a container is closed, the Hub checks:
-
Which time mode is selected
-
The schedule programmed via the Portal
It then communicates this information directly to your Bait Containers, ensuring everything runs seamlessly and wirelessly.
THE REMOTE
The Remote gives you flexibility at sea, even without internet. Before heading out, you set up to four time modes in the online portal, each with its own bait release time or delay. Once at sea, simply use the Remote to switch your bait container between these modes, adapting instantly to changing conditions. For example, your modes could be set as:
🔴 Mode 1 - 20:30
🟡 Mode 2 - 03:00
🔵 Mode 3 - 6 Hour Delay
🟢 Mode 4 - 22:45 (+2 Days)
Why The Bait Container
Smarter Baiting, Built for the Sea
Traditional methods leave bait exposed to predators, currents and decay, wasting resources and reducing catch success. The Bait Container changes that. Expertly engineered and pressure tested to 183 metres (100 fathoms), it shields bait until the exact moment lobsters are most active. With programmable timing, you decide when to release, aligning bait freshness with peak feeding hours for maximum results.
Efficiency That Pays Off
By using just 25-50% of your usual bait, the container cuts costs by up to 75% while boosting catch consistency. Its robust, saltwater resistant design ensures reliability in the harshest conditions, giving fishermen the confidence that bait remains fresh, potent and protected. Fewer wasted trips to sea and less gear handling mean up to 50% fuel savings and more time focused on the catch rather than logistics.
Simple Steps, Smarter Results
-
Load the bait: Place 25–50% of your usual portion inside the bait container.
-
Close the container: Lock the container to keep bait sealed until release.
-
Baiting: Mount securely in your lobster pot and let the system bait your creel at the time set.
Once programmed through the online portal or remote, the container opens automatically at your chosen time, whether overnight for short soaks or baiting the creel with fresh bait over longer soaks (several days).
