Crab Pot - Crab Fishing Update

This is a Crab Pot designed to work with the Crab fishing Update.

Features:
-Grab Pot to catch Crabs and eventually Lobsters
-Orange Bouy with Spotlight, Transponder, GPS Sender etc.

How to set up:
-Set Frequency for GPS Sender
-Paint Frequency on Bouy
-Note Frequency to find it later
-Load Bouy on Ship

How to launch the Pot:
-Make sure it has enough Charge
-Make sure the Bouy is connected to the Pot
-Move the Pot Hauler out of the Way
so that it doesnt block the Launcher
-Place the Pot on the Launcher using the Crane
-Activate Winch Down once the Pot is on the Launcher
-"Bait" the Pot once its on the Launcher (not possible in SW)
-Launch the Pot in desired Location that ideally is max. 80 meters deep.

How to retrieve the Pot:
-Get next to the Pot and use the Pot Hauler winch to hook with a Electric Connector on it... or
-If close enough just grab a Rope and connect
-Use the Pot Hauler (Winch) next to the Launcher to get the Pot out
-Open the Pot on the Launcher towards the Deck and release Crabs
-Sort Crabs and load them into the Crab Tank

How to use:
1-Baiting: Fishermen typically bait the crab pots with fish guts, chicken necks, or other smelly substances to lure crabs inside.

2-Deployment: The crab pots are lowered into the water, usually in areas with known crab populations, and left on the Oceanfloor to soak for a few hours or overnight.

3-Entrapment: Crabs are attracted to the bait and enter the pot through a funnel-shaped entrance. Once inside, they can't escape due to the pot's design.

4-Retrieval: Fishermen haul in the crab pots, often using a hydraulic winch to lift them back onto the boat.
Sorting: The caught crabs are then sorted by size, gender, and species, and any bycatch (unwanted species) is released back into the water.

5-Storage: The harvested crabs are stored in holding tanks or containers filled with seawater to keep them alive until they reach the market.

It's a labor-intensive process that requires skill, patience, and knowledge of the ocean and crab behavior. Your Stormworks crab pot design has been an impressive virtual representation of this real-world fishing technique!

Youre ready to go!
