I'm headed to Buffalo Lake July 3rd. Supposedly it's one of the best crawdad lakes in the state. I'm making it my quest to go there and try to be successful for the first time. Maybe it will bump up my confidence... and just maybe catch a monster and win big! Anyone else been to Buffalo on the Colville rez?

Used to be the best lake ever for crawfish.  I don't think that's the case anymore.  Really went down hill for a while there.   I wasn't sure you could still even legally catch them there.  What is the limit now?  Used to be no limit, then it was 10 lbs a day.

Well that's cool.  At least is sounds like it's picking back up.  Used to hammer that lake for the greens, but got very poor, so kinda gave up on it.  The tribe shocked it heavy about ten years ago at night and pulled a lot of the big greens and transplanted them in other lakes.
My uncle went last year. He did pretty well in about 4 hours and they were jumbos. The limit is 5 pounds a day per person, not that great, but I guess the bass fishing is killer. If it wasn't for the curiosity of the bass fishing I probably wouldn't waste my time.

Are you guys using the round pots with the cone shaped hole at both ends? I've known buddies that have used the square shrimp pots and cooned em.

In the 80's we would regularly catch a ton of them one the south end of Baker using chicken and hand nets. Most were 5-6 inches with a few larger.

We throw our trap off the end of our dock on and use left over corn on the cob.  My kid loves them in garlic butter.
