Dont forget LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION you wont catch many in fast moveing water, or just a slick bare bottom, and I never catch many in deeper water. If you can find a grass flat in a slow moveing river or a nice little grass filled spot off to the side then your set, they love mud, slow moveing water, and cover and the grassy areas seem to provide exactly what they want. Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

Where I have in mind is shallow, muddy, with lots of old logs laying around by an abandone railroad bed. I think it will work good there.

I don't know about where you live at, but in Texas at almost any grocery store we can buy crawfish boil a sack with all the ingredients needed.. Boil them with new potatoes, corn on the cob.. together... pour on to a table lined with news paper or brown paper sacks and enjoy... Drain water first...:D invite lots of people and serve with cold beer... ( don't drink, but I remember how good it was with this dish)

Crawfish are good eats.
