Bloody creyfish

[mole catcher 1]

Out today doing a bit of pike fishing,tryed all we could to lure a fish into taking our baits but to no avail,another blank. What was interesed were the bloody north american cray fish.

untill we poped up our baits they all ended up like this

 

My mate did miss one though

 

Still,cant win them all but i will take a crayfish trap next time,fishermans revenge

Mole,you should fish for the crayfish,river near me is teeming with em.I made a funnel trap from chicken mesh,dropped a rabbit carcass in and hey presto next day 74 crayfish.Purged them in an old water tank for a couple of day's and stuck the f****rs on the bbq,f*****g luvly mate,as good as any lobster i've ate.Cheaper than lobster as well lol.

I like crayfish very much and the expensive ones you get in tescos are overcooked

I fish my local river for crayfish, but an interessting thing, last pike i ate, when gutted was full of small crayfish, maybe trap a couple and try them as bait

never tried cray fish had plenty lobster crab prawns ,so i take it i would like them that would amuse me trapping cray fish

 

are there any were in scotland you can trap them with a small type of lobster trap made espec for them etc

[Guest Jane Russell]

I prefer crab to lobster but most places overcook it in my view. At least when you cook it yourself, you can get it right. Used to get loads when I lived on the IOW.
