How do king crabs get into the cages?

King crabs typically enter crab traps or cages attracted by bait placed inside. The traps are designed with one-way entry points that allow the crabs to enter easily but make it difficult for them to escape. Once the crabs are drawn in by the scent of the bait, they become trapped until the traps are retrieved by fishermen. Proper placement and timing of the traps are crucial for maximizing the catch.
