8/6/2011 1:53:00 PMI may be totally off on this but I want to make sure that folks are seeing something that is proper and not be influenced by a good catch to possibly do something illegal. It is really hard to judge size on those crawdads but if the big one in the forefront is about 6 inches, then perhaps some of the others are undersized? Minimum size for Signal Crawfish is 3 1/4". I really really don't want to rain on the parade but that trap does not seem to have the required escape cord either. Is that entirely legal? I do wish my traps would catch a good number of craws like that though. Great job.
