All my money as a kid came from those minnow traps. I grew up near a large lake in a river town so bait was big business. Between chub minnows and nightcrawler hunting my childhood friend and I always had candy money and more. LOL I miss those days.

[@arca5200]

Hey, what about an underwater camera? Would be interesting to see how they make their way into the trap. If the water isn't too muddy, of course.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Cool idea!

[@emera1750]

Arthur water is muddy! I'll tell yah that much

[@Porkleaker]

You've already got a GoPro right? The cases for underwater are pretty cheap - or there's the camera I got on amazon Git2 Pro does 2k at 23fps or 1080p at 60fps and comes with loads of mounts that work with GoPro as well. Was $145 I think - can upload some underwater footage if you're interested.

[@TheGnarTube]

They went into the trap the exact way you think they did.

[@jeffreybozeman6245]

They walk forward into the trap😬... when they’re frightened they go backwards really fast. That’s where the term “crawfishing” on a deal comes from, when someone backs out on a deal they’ve made.

[@Fiaudiodude]

I have enjoyed the outdoors all my life and watching your video's help me enjoy the outdoors even more. Keep up the great video's!

Nice vid... here in the UK we have our own Crayfish that are being wiped out by the introduction of an invasive American / Red Signal Crayfish which is bigger than our native species... if we catch the Red Signal Crayfish, no matter the size, its illegal to put them back in our waterways... some restaurants serve Crayfish and it is delicious, been thinking of getting some traps and fishing for some myself.

[@TheWoodedBeardsman]

Worth the effort!

[@Godkekington]

Its fun to do if you have free time

Here In Texas is the same with Tilapia carp. It is illegal to put them back in the water,no matter the size.

Bug,What's wrong with the word, they're? It's a perfectly acceptable contraction of the words, they and are =they're=they are. It has nothing to do with the words, there, or their. Their is possessive and there can indicate direction and "There are several kinds of crawfish." Quick was saying of the crawfish, "I think they are pretty good if you cook them right." They're pretty good.I live in Louisiana and I think they're delicious when cooked correctly. YUM!

In Louisiana crawfish are a part of our culture. Other places (except maybe south Texas and few others) don't seen to make them the same. Try Zatarain's crab boil and add a little vinegar or lemon to the boil, helps them peel easier. Good stuff.
