This was a really good trapping day to watch! It would be cool to see the different traps and how they're made. Thanks for the great video. Much love from the Midwest US 💖
This is sick! What do you guys think the season is for these guys? I want to catch for eating. I live in Minneapolis but am scoping out spots around the metro that may work. Also which trap would you all recommend ?
I start around the first week in june . then stop around end of August. Water temps play a big part . i make my traps from 1/4inch hardware mesh . i make them long rectangle ,they lay on the bottom better then the round store bought ones .check minnesotas fish regs for size of traps and limits . and i only keep invasive rusty caryfish .
@@ALLDAYBLAZER amazing dude thanks for the response. I live in the twin cities and am hoping to find out how and when to go to get good crayfish as imports of Louisiana crawfish are now illegal. I used to live in New Orleans and all I want to do is host a boil.
You can still have live crayfish shipped up from Louisiana, they just cost $$$$$. The lakes theses guys are fishing are infested with invasive rusty crayfish. Not all lake and rivers have them , the mn dnr has list of lakes and rivers that have theses invasive crayfish . the native crayfish are not doing because of the rusty crayfish. Thats why i dont keep native ones ,and the native ones are way smaller . Traps are easy to make from 1/4 inch mesh . baits that work , cat food ,hot dogs , and oily fish parts like trout or salmon . Well hope this helps good luck . And one thing respect other people's traps and spots . if you see others traps find a different spot .to many traps in one spot = low numbers in your traps.
@@northcountrybait3898 all good. I would still like to buy some in the future. Any place you sell them or way to get in touch let me know. Im not the best at this stuff either.
