I'm going to be up at Cowichan Lake in November and was going to try catching crawdads in a prawn trap. Has anyone else ever tried that? I was thinking about using chicken or should I use some herring that I caught this year? I was going to put the trap in about 20 feet of water close to shore, probably near a creek mouth. I have never tried this before and don't know if its the right thing to do. And if I do catch some should I cut the tails off when they are fresh and then just boil the tails like they were crabs? Just how tasty are crwdads?..... little bit of butter, little bit of garlic..... sounds good to me but I don't know for sure.... anybody got any ideas?..... Steve.
