Crawfish trap?

Post by CoastalPirate »

Last weekend I hit the Wacissa and while flowing with the current I saw a crawfish (destroyed) on the river floor. It got me thinking...man is there a healthy crawfish population out here? If so, has anyone attempted to net or trap these guys? Does anyone have any advice on creating a trap or how how to catch them? Appreciate any help!

Yes there are crawfish traps made for sale. Search the internet. Some traps are better made than others so chose carefully. Can't give a first hand report other than interest several years ago. Did my research, bought two traps and dry weather dried up all the water. Then I lost interest. I wanted to trap crawfish and use for bait.

Do a google search for Trapper Arnie. I have bought traps from him and get his monthly news letter.
