HOW TO Catch a Tonne of Crayfish (Using a Trap)
มุมมอง 5572 หลายเดือนก่อน
Simple way how to catch lots of Crayfish using a Trap. Crayfish are excellent scavengers, eating a varied diet. When trying to catch crayfish, using fresh crab is one of the best baits to attract them in large numbers. Put plenty of bait inside the trap and position it at the water's edge, where crayfish prefer to stay. Check your trap at regular intervals and add more bait when needed. Watch N...

    • @BackYardCrayfish
      @BackYardCrayfish หลายเดือนก่อน

      These particular tanks are used to raise newly hatched crayfish up to about 2". Then we transfer them into an outside grow-out pond. It's at this point we drain and rinse the tanks ready to hatch the next broods. It's approximately 2-3 months cycles depending on the time of year (temperature.)

    Thanks for putting this video together. Great info and a lot to think about. We have lots of ideas for our little farm in Khon Kaen area, and Yabbies are in there. Can I ask, how well they would work in an aquaponics setup, with the water cycling through plant beds to be cleaned? Many thanks, and keep up the good work!

    • @BackYardCrayfish
      @BackYardCrayfish หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks mate, that's really appreciated because there's a lot more work that goes into these videos compared to the ones on our farm channel. I've seen a few people using Yabbies successfully in aquaponic systems, so they're definitely an option, and in our opinion, an upgrade to tilapia.
