Crayfishing

The fancy new stuff works great, but the old-fashion round traps do too ... I like the double-enders (see attached image). We use a can of tuna or cat food and just poke holes in it with a hammer and nail, then put that into the trap... drop it in the shallows, tie it off, come back in the morning. When catching them off of a smooth-rock bottom of a river, we use tongs to grab them ... they don't scoot away nearly as bad when you use the tongs rather than scaring them with your big ol' hand... just grab them kitchen tongs and drop them in a bucket. Works for us
