25-30 traps is more like commercial trapping and as far as I know there isn't any dispensation for selling wild game to restaurants in Utah. I don't think there's any way one single family could trap 25 traps worth of crawfish in one day and not be either wasting most of them or giving/selling them to someone. There's a lot of crawfish in Strawberry but if a bunch of guys start trapping 20-30 traps worth of bugs a few times a week I doubt they're going to be as numerous as they are now. Don't forget that the only reason there's so many is that they're not high on the menu for trout, if they get decimated they won't recover fast because the food/environment situation isn't ideal for crawfish in any Utah mountain lakes.
