looks well cooked, did you just eat the tails or is it worth the effort getting claws? Do you eat the head?

just tail and claws , take the black intestine out of the tail, then i dont have to purge them, just put the whole cray in boiling water for 3 or 4 minutes then pull off tail and claws....fabulous...mack

nice catch,i know the signal crayfish are vermin but if everyone who caught them done the same as you cooked and ate them it would keep them under control good eating

I love canal fishing! It is my absolute favorite fishing environment. I love eating crawdads
" crayfish", when the fish didnt bite we'd catch those crustaceans and call it a day.
The Canals I fished had some different species, since this is the USA, yet carp are present.
Wonderful post..
