Skip if
Skip it if you want a trap backed by a real review history, since 11 reviews is far too few to judge reliably, or if its 3.5 star average, the lowest alongside the crawfish net traps here, gives you pause.

Overview
Not every fishing trip calls for a large trap, and this 2 Pack Minnow Trap is built small and priced small to match, listed at $8.99 for two blue nylon traps, the cheapest price per pack in this entire comparison by far.
The build is simple: nylon material in blue, described on the listing only as a fishing bait trap without additional feature callouts or a stated size. That simplicity keeps the cost down, but it comes with a 3.5 star rating across 11 reviews, a small sample that puts it near the bottom of this group alongside the similarly low-rated crawfish net traps in this comparison.
Bought last month is listed at 100+, a moderate figure that matches the Gee-Feets G40 and the QualyQualy bait trap despite the lower rating. For anglers who just need a couple of small, disposable-feeling traps for minnows and don't want to spend more than $9, this fits the bill. Buyers who want a rating built on hundreds or thousands of reviews, like the Frabill or Gee-Feets traps offer, should look elsewhere in this comparison instead.

Performance notes
A nylon build in a small format generally trades durability and capacity for a lower price and lighter weight, which tracks with the $8.99 price tag here, the lowest of any trap in this comparison. The listing describes the feature simply as fishing bait traps, without callouts for rust resistance, reinforced holes, or a stated size the way some of the pricier traps in this group specify. That lack of detail makes it harder to judge exactly how much bait or how many minnows each trap can hold before it needs to be emptied. At this price point, the trap reads as a low-commitment way to try trapping or to supplement a larger trap already in use, rather than a primary tool for serious or frequent trips.
What buyers say
A 3.5 star average from 11 reviews places this trap near the bottom of the group on both measures, similar in pattern to the crawfish net traps also covered in this comparison. Eleven reviews is a small enough sample that a few more reviews in either direction could shift the average meaningfully, so the score should be read as an early signal rather than a settled verdict. The 100+ bought last month figure is respectable and on par with the Gee-Feets G40's demand pace, suggesting the low price is enough to keep it selling even without a strong review record yet. Overall, the pattern points to a budget trap that hasn't built up much of a track record either way.

Frequently asked questions
How many minnow traps come in this pack?
It ships as a 2 pack of small nylon traps in blue, priced at $8.99 total, the lowest price of any trap in this comparison. Each trap is described simply as a fishing bait trap without additional specified dimensions beyond its small size.
Is the 3.5 star rating a concern?
It's on the lower end of this comparison, but with only 11 reviews behind it, the average is based on a small sample. That's a similar pattern to other low-cost traps here, and it means the score carries less weight than the thousands of reviews behind the Frabill traps.
How does demand for this trap compare to competitors?
Amazon shows 100+ bought in the past month, which matches the pace of the Gee-Feets G40 and the QualyQualy bait trap, though it's well below the Frabill 1272's 1,000+. For an $8.99 pack, that's a reasonable level of ongoing demand.
