Here are some pics of my setup. The bottom part is just screwed into the floor. On Parkers this is not an issue because there is wood so I just made sure it was sealed well. I'm not sure how that works on a defiance.
I use the Ladner pots not the Ladner Like POSs that some sell from China. Discovery Bay did stand behind them. I upgraded to the big boy after he explained that. Cost me another $100.

Crab is a sweet seafood delicacy enjoyed in a variety of preparations, most famously pan-fried crab cakes. These prehistoric-looking creatures live in salty waters around the world, such as the Chesapeake and San Francisco Bays on the American coasts. Typically, fishermen trap the crustaceans using bait placed inside a net, also called a "pot." Crabbers pull the contraption back to the surface by winding a rope attached to the top of the pot. While commercial fishing operations make use of motorized devices, an amateur can build a hand crank to serve as a crab pot puller. more

Make sure you're legal. Here in Florida you're not allowed to use a trap puller for recreational traps, only commercial.
