Crayfish in or near Mason county?
« on: August 26, 2015, 03:08:23 PM »
Does anyone know any Ok spots to drop some crayfish traps around Mason County? I live near LK. Cushman but I've never seen anyone dropping traps in the lake. Appreciate any advice. Thanks

As a youth, I found plenty of them in local creeks.  Johns, Deer, Cranberry, Mill, etc.

Try the upper end of Cushman. Up The Staircase area where the river comes into the resivor. Also Lilywaump Swamp at Price lake.

I've seen them in the water by what used to be the state park at Cushman.

I threw pots in 3 places at Lake Nahwatzel this weekend (2 spots in the outlet creek on the south shore, and one in the lake) and got completely skunked.  Any advice?  I used 2 styles of pots so I doubt it was that.  Canned cat food was the bait.
