Hey all....
Can anyone point me towards some crayfish in broward COUNTY....I have traps but have had no luck in the canals or glades....any help would be appreciated.
I dont need to catch 20# of the bugers...just enough to stock a small aquaponics pond I built as an experiment.....

Your time and money would be better spent at a pet shop.....

I have a bait fish trap that I leave in the water in my backyard and it always fills up with a few crawfish. Idk what they are attracted to, but every time I pull it up (once every couple months) they are in there. Maybe try leaving your trap some where for a prolonged period of time.

No they arent but id rather spend 5 a piece then go flippin rocks in all the nasty ass canals on here. Plus if he has other aquatic life i troducing them may bring unwanted parasites and disease imo

I'm sure local pet stores are more expensive but $5 for a craw seems expensive other than that site there are others around $2-3 unless you want them neon colored ones or some specialty ones.

You wont be saving that much, baseball. With live animals you need a 2nd delivery as a standard for delivery . The price can be $19.99 and up

You are correct I forgot about delivery which would make it well overpriced.
