Introduction to Bait Saviour
Commercial lobster fishing is no easy task. Long hours, harsh weather, and the constant pressure to turn a profit can make it a challenging venture. One of the biggest issues lobstermen face is the frequent need for re-baiting. Constantly heading back out to sea to replace bait is both time-consuming and costly. This is compounded by the problem of losing expensive lobster bait to unwanted species.
Bait Saviour addresses these challenges by releasing protected bait automatically after a preset delay. This can cut bait use and unnecessary trips to sea. Here is how the Bait Container works.
Components and Mechanics of Our Bait Container
The Bait Container protects a bait bag during the early soak. It opens automatically after a bespoke preset delay, releasing the bag into the pot. The delay is chosen when you order and programmed before delivery.
Advantages of the Bait Saviour System over Traditional Baiting Practices
Comparing Bait Saviour to traditional baiting highlights its practical benefits for commercial fishing:
• Reduced bait costs: Because you lose far less bait to unwanted species, you won’t need to re-bait as often, cutting down your total bait consumption by up to 50–75%.
• Lower fuel usage: Timed release may reduce unnecessary re-baiting trips, depending on grounds and soak pattern.
• Sustainability: By reducing unnecessary trips and bait waste, Bait Saviour conserves resources and minimises the environmental impact of lobster fishing.
How Bait Saviour Compares to Traditional Baiting
1. Efficiency Gains
The Bait Container is an electronic timed-release device designed to protect bait during the early soak. Your chosen delay is programmed before delivery, so each closing starts a repeatable countdown.
2. Combat Bait Spoilage
While many factors can cause bait spoilage at sea, Bait Saviour protects your bait from being eaten by non-target species and shields it from harsh conditions until it’s released, helping you make the most of every ounce of bait.
3. Improved Pot Performance
Because you can deploy bait exactly when you need it, you can use higher-quality or more specialised bait without worrying about it being prematurely taken by unwanted creatures. Over time, this can lead to more productive traps and bigger catches.
Practical Tips on How to Make Bait Last Longer
Pair the Bait Container with suitable fish scraps or bait blocks. Choose the exact delay for your normal soak in hours or days, up to 30 days, and we programme the unit before delivery.
Conclusion
With lower operational costs, increased efficiency, and eco-conscious lobster fishing methods, the Bait Saviour System revolutionises the commercial fishing landscape. By reducing the number of times you need to head to sea and significantly cutting bait usage, it offers a sustainable and profitable approach to lobster fishing.
