There's actually a commercial fishery for them in lake Washington. There's a lot of them there.

We fished down at Banks lake this weekend. We were fishing by the lower net pens ( I think they are the trout pens) There were crawdad legs and shells all over the bank. I saw a rod stuck in the ground with a rope attached and pulled it in. It was a crawdad pot with 4 crawdads in it. They filled it with meat. Looks like they catch a lot off the bank there.

I used to use canned cat food and tuna.  Placed it in a tupperware container with lid with holes drilled in it.  Used to catch a ton of them.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

Mutual Fish in Seattle has them when they're in season.  They should have them right now.

I use the LA Crawfish Co. out of  Louisianna.  Live and overnight. 

No better way to get a good "boil" set up for a big party.   :drool:

Stick some chicken livers in the bottom of some mesh panty hose, their calws get caught in the panty hose and you just pull them right off and into your bucket, works like a charm.

When I was a kid we used to catch them at Gene Coulan park. Some were the size of small lobsters, they have some real big ones in there
