I am having a hard time finding any with size. Does anyone know any decent spots around the Kitsap/ Mason county area?
You wouldnt believe where you well find them, i dont know your area very well, but just find any creeks are pretty rocky, meaning decent size rocks with slow pools of water and throw out a trap and see what turns up... we had test pots all over where i live in the last few weeks, were just now starting to find the mother loads..... lol... its addicting, checking your pots, its like XMAS morning...

Okay, so if I were to put some pots in a lake (on the eastside) what would some you guys use for bait. I need to be successful or I'm going to hang this hobby up for good.
bacon

Q: What kind of bait should I use to catch crayfish?
A: Bait is a very important issue. I've read many people's advice about people recommending such things as chicken, canned cat food, liver, bacon, sole, or something rotten. Every time I see this I shutter! Think fresh and understand that crayfish are picky eaters! Some of the best baits I have found so far are Shad, Herring, Salmon heads (gills in), and cod guts. Basically fish, fish which are oily or have oily parts. The bait must be fresh or fresh frozen. Stay away from all fowl and land animals or parts of.
I always thought bacon was good, but this guy is the expert and he doesn't recommend bacon, so...................

I tried fish flavored canned cat food in the past. So far I've been skunked every time. I think I will cast a line and try to catch a fish of any sort and stick it in at least one pot.
I have been mud buggin like a som biatch the last few weeks and get a little butter dish and drill half inch holes all around it wire it off in your pot stuff it with chicken or chum or what ever you the heck you want to use for bait and they well come.. you got to find them, its a big difference to have your bait in that butter dish then just sittin out in the open, they can eat you bait from outside the pot if its not in the dish... night and day difference.. and that is your craw fish tip of the day!... and once you catch your first your hooked!...

I'm heading to the Tucannon River this weekend with my boys and was hoping to catch a few with my boys. Do you just pick up rocks and grab them before they get away? Do their pinchers hurt? I have memories of doing it when I was really young, but too young to remember much. Thanks.
I would get a crawdad pot/trap and put a chicken wing/breast in it and let it soak for a few hrs or half day.. or ya look under rocks.. we use crawdads pots...

We tried the chicken vs fish theory. Fish, on average, doubled the production of the chicken. We had to pull the trap with fish in it every 45 minutes because it was getting full.

No we just threw some freezer burnt filet's in the back of the trap. Our best was 35 and next was 20, the best we got with chicken was 10, they were however in different locations on the river so take it how you want.

Bacon is good bait, but instead of a backpack full of beer i would go ice chest, 2 reasons i dont like to disturb the beers, they get foamy and 2 i like ice cold beers....

I could not believe my pots were coming up with just a few Crayfish after an all night soak, yet the bait was gone. Then I talked to a guy who is there allot. He said as soon as they eat your bait, the leave the pot. I was amazed, you mean they can get back out? He says sure, try soaking your pot for 4 hours instead of all night.
Four hours later I had a pot loaded with crayfish.

One thing I figured out a couple years ago at Pearygin Lake,
I could not believe my pots were coming up with just a few Crayfish after an all night soak, yet the bait was gone. Then I talked to a guy who is there allot. He said as soon as they eat your bait, the leave the pot. I was amazed, you mean they can get back out? He says sure, try soaking your pot for 4 hours instead of all night.

There's a lot of folks who will pick your pots for you over there too, happens to us every year....some people are just too lazy to bring their own pots.

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! :rolleyes: 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.
Post by: Southpole on June 20, 2013, 01:55:48 PM
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.I'm headed to Buffalo Lake July 3rd. Supposedly it's one of the best crawdad lakes in the state.

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.

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.

Okay....I'm throwing this out there because I think the competition is stout.
I will ship, on my dime, one bear salami (when it is done later this month) to the holder of the largest mud bug. You have until the last day of August to submit your entry. Pics must accompany entry on this thread with a ruler visible to over all length. Forum members can decide....is it nose to tail or tip of extended claw to tail. Anythign else?
BUTTER!
Last day of Aug.......so yeah....Sept 1 for submissions is fair.

That's frustrating investing time like that to get skunked, I've been there. I would try a couple different types of bait in each pot. I did cat food & smelt in one pot and salmon and cat food in another. It's a good thing I did that, because the cat food didn't work so hot but the smelt did, there was nothing left of the smelt and the pot was packed. I would try some kind of fish and maybe some chicken? Now, the million dollar question. When a guy finally finds a bait that works, will it work in other lakes as well? Hhuummm...Quotewill get outok good to know!. we tried a better spot with HUGE rocks all over the bank, lots of cover, saw big ones all over, tried catfood on a 10 hr soak all nite, NOT ONE. catfood was not a good choice.

Crawfishin in the blood here!Looks like you have a mixture of native and non-natives.
Post by: HoofsandWings on July 21, 2013, 11:45:22 AM
After reading through the 10 pages, did I miss the 3 1/4 inch rule for Signal Crayfish, the native in this state.
The measure is from the tip of the tail to the tip of the head.
So if they are Signal and under-size you have to throw them back. But if they are the non-natives you can't throw them back and have to dispose of them.

The ones with the blue and white at the claws are native for sure. The smaller ones could go either way? :dunno:Crawfishin in the blood here!Looks like you have a mixture of native and non-natives.

Bump.....anyone still chasing the lead on this?Yeah, I'm still chopping away. We're planning a trip back to Buffalo but it won't be until later this month, I hope. That's the only place I know that has the crawdad mega size potential to get me in the running for the bear log. I think we had some good sized dads from the last trip, but I didn't have a measuring devise to prove it :'( .

Crawdadin has me so frustrated. I've got to be doing something wrong. I've put pots out in several king county lakes, a river, even in kapowsin in pierce county. Used trout, chum salmon, chicken, even fuel brined chicken, bacon, lunch meat, tuna you name it. Obviously I don't mind putting in the work, but at this point I think I need some direction.
How long are you leaving the pots soak? What kind of trap are you using? When are you putting them out?

I'm using the Frabill tubular type traps and I have one of the 12x12 ones too. Time of day varies, I've soaked overnight in one lake, most are early morning when I head out to fish but not always, two or three times in the afternoon. Usually let them soak for at least two hours before checking them. Some get up to a four hour soak.
I use one of the Frabill tubular also. It's the larger one though. Do you use bait boxes? I didn't have much success with that one until I built some bait boxes. I would tie them with twine and suspend them (keep them off the surface of the trap) and place about 4-5 inches from each entrance. I went from catching 3-4 to getting about 10-20 per four hour soak.
Post by: Evil_EdwardO on August 12, 2013, 12:53:02 PM
I'm thinking its more of where I'm putting them. I've read that they like rock bottom with coverage like downed trees and such. But I've also read sandy bottom with vegetation?
Rocky bottoms and not too deep. I've been having pretty good results in about 3-4 feet of water and not so much when I have them deeper.

No go on the sandy bottom said with confidence. They live under rocks. In the streams and lake shores you can pick up the rocks to find the crawdad underneath them.

Well, went out on Friday night to camp and crawdad but my night ended prematurely by a dust storm. Left camp at 1am and pulled my pots. Got about 20 and two just over 7inches. I tried a different spot and noticed this time that over half my crawdads only had one claw. Is this normal?Sweet catch. The last crawdad trip we did, some of the dads had one claw that was bigger than the other side. I was wondering if they "shed" there claws and evidently grow new ones?

My theory was maybe there were more bass in the area. I did see a lot of fish. This was only my thought though and not based off of anything. One of the larger ones had what looked like another claw growing back. I think you can see it on the one in the picture posted earlier. I may have to google and see if they shed their claws.

Believe it or not, from my time diving freshwater and messing with fish and crawdads....most bass, largemouth and smallmouth, will take a crawdad only tail first. We would swim along and the bass would come right up to you. If you pulled a 'dad from under a log and gave his body a 1/2 twist while holding onto the tail it won't kill them but make them twitch nicely. You can drop it right in the water column and the bass will dart in a grab it. Every time they would take it in, spit it out, take it in, repeat until they got it just right.....tail first.

Usually I only get 3-4 out of 30 with one claw. That last time more than half only had one claw out of 20.
H20: Makes a lot of sense, if they didn't, there would probably be a lot of one eyed bass swimming around.

I approched them and asked if they were fishing (the water is less than a foot in most places, except this one part where the water pools at the bottom of a small falls.
Surprised me when they said they were crawfishin', and had half of a two gallon bucket caught...with BIG ones!
The two little girls (approx 5-8) were doing all the fishing, and they were using a simple fish hook and line with small chunks of Oscar Meyer hotdogs. They'd wait for the craws to clamp on with their claws, and apparently they won't let go. Then you just pull 'em in.
I've been meaning to go there and try it myself, but by the looks of their bucket, there wouldn't be many left!

I was hiking along a nature trail here in west Vancouver when I came across a family gathered near a small creek near the trail head.I've heard people putting bait in panty hose, lowering it down in the water and when the crawdads would grab it they can't get off.

I was hiking along a nature trail here in west Vancouver when I came across a family gathered near a small creek near the trail head.I've heard people putting bait in panty hose, lowering it down in the water and when the crawdads would grab it they can't get off.
I approched them and asked if they were fishing (the water is less than a foot in most places, except this one part where the water pools at the bottom of a small falls.
Surprised me when they said they were crawfishin', and had half of a two gallon bucket caught...with BIG ones!
The two little girls (approx 5-8) were doing all the fishing, and they were using a simple fish hook and line with small chunks of Oscar Meyer hotdogs. They'd wait for the craws to clamp on with their claws, and apparently they won't let go. Then you just pull 'em in.

Yeah, that makes sense!

Lets see some home-made crawfish/crayfish/crawdaddy/mudbug/yabbie pots!
We're pretty serious about crawdadding. We sold several sefs of traps this last year.

You guys know any good spots up here in skagit county? Never done it myself and kinda want to get into it. Maybe some good advice for a beginner to?
Howdy, if you haven't already start at the beginning of this thread and read carefully. There is some real good Intel if not some of the best you'll find on the net. Good luck and keep us Crayfishers in the loop!!!!! :tup:

I'm thinking maybe Lacamas Lake. Main issue with Columbia River and Vancouver Lake area is simply pollution. Not sure how comfortable I'd be eating stuff out of either...

What do you use for a bouy for the trap? That the next on the list to get . How do you keep people from messing with your trap?
Check the regs. It is written out very well. As for pot thiefs hide out and ambushem with chicken eggs!!!!! :chuckle:

So any suggestions for places to try down in the Vancouver area?

Just about any stream, river or lake/pond with a stream in and out will have some population of craws :tup:
