Just too report on the crayfish day, it wasn't the haul we were expecting but we did get 15 and a decent amount were huge and in canoeman's opinion "edible" (he is excited to use the duck dynasty cook book) we found that the deeper the pot was the better the haul and the less bullhead we had too pick out.

Thanks all for your information and helping us figure this stuff out.

How deep? Sounds interesting.

well now that I have found my glasses
I can type again thank you all for your info
we followed the video on you tube
made really nice traps and cheap too
about $10 per trap

first day 15 then over night last night 40
so who knows what tomorrow
the best part is you can drop the traps go out look for your two pinks and then pick them up on the way home

we did try diferent depths close to shore nope nothing
then took them out to around 15 feet ok better then took them out to 30 feet bingo that's where they were

kinda a hard thing to do from shore

but man did they taste good
some of them had claws big enough to pull meat out of
but there again garlic butter makes it all taste good

thanks again cnm

canoe man , I was getting them from shore

and I didn't make any crayfish traps , I got a cheap "pyramide" style crab trap

with 6-8oz weight and half salmon head tied in a middle . =) I don't know if it does matter to where you fish but I noticed they are around on a high tide
