Derelict Crab Trap Rodeo a Success! This year PC and our partners removed 4,800 derelict traps from the Pontchartrain Basin and released 4,400 live blue crabs!

Pontchartrain Conservancy has partnered once again with the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) for the annual Derelict Crab Trap Removal Program. Derelict crab traps are any crab traps that have become discarded, lost, or abandoned in the marine environment. In Louisiana, they are a widespread form of marine debris.
