Livingston Lures King Crab Caller

“If science can put a man on the moon, The Callers should be able to put crab in a pot.” — Capt. “Wild” Bill Wichrowski

As featured on television and tested in commercial fisheries, Livingston’s King Crab Caller utilizes proven EBS™ Technology to help attract more crabs to commercial and recreational traps. Field testing has demonstrated catch increases of approximately 30–35% compared to traps without callers, while fishermen have also reported larger average crab size, cleaner catches, and fewer females entering traps, helping reduce unwanted bycatch.

Powered by Livingston’s proprietary EBS™ (Electronic Baitfish Sound) Technology, the Crab Caller emits natural acoustic signals that research and field studies have shown can attract multiple crustacean species to the sound source. The technology has been evaluated on king crab, blue crab, American lobster, spiny lobster, and shrimp, creating a versatile attraction platform for both commercial and recreational applications.

By attracting target species directly to the trap, the Crab Caller can help reduce bait consumption and, in some situations, significantly reduce or eliminate the need for bait altogether. The result is a more efficient fishing operation with reduced bait costs, improved catch quality, and fewer undersized or non-target animals entering the trap. Designed for the demanding conditions of commercial fisheries, the Livingston King Crab Caller represents the next generation of sound-based crustacean attraction technology, combining scientific research, real-world field validation, and innovative EBS™ acoustic attraction.

PRO TIP: Deploy Crab Callers in traps positioned along migration routes, depth transitions, ledges, and productive bottom habitat where king crabs naturally travel and forage. Compare caller-equipped traps with traditional bait-only traps in similar locations to evaluate performance. Many fishermen have found that combining strategic trap placement with EBS™ acoustic attraction technology can improve catch rates while reducing bait usage and unwanted bycatch.
