    Been homeless for some time, but never hungry. Keep up the good work. The police never bother me while catching these little critters, so I eat well. I fish in Sand Creek, in Aurora Co.

    Mud bugs. .... LOL... I have cooked up many times but the most tasty ones I have ever eaten was the ones from Louisiana where the place was selling them in 5 gal. buckets. They had them 2 ways. One was lightly spiced and the other was hot spice. Yummy.

    good morning. I normally don't make comments, but I enjoy reading them. a couple of months ago I watched your shed hunting tips video. then I accidentally ran into more of your videos last weekend and binge watched about 12-14 videos our a weekend since my family were out of town. I enjoy your videos, both hunting and fishing b/c of the relationship you have with you & your wife and b/c I love hunting & the outdoors. we live in Colorado Springs and am excited to try crawfishing & kokanee fishing hopefully this year and explore different units (within about 3 hrs radius) for all big game hunting. last year, I hunted #78 during 2nd rifle for elk. I understand you guys moved back from Florida. did you guys move back to Woodland Park area? Thanks for your great videos and I'm excited to watch more as there are some I haven't yet watched. Cheers!

    Man I'm from Texas but lived in Colorado for over 20 something years and we used to live right across the street from Saddle Rock golf course in this apartment/ townhouse community and I would catch so many crawfish there and people thought it was crazy .....But it took me back-to-back Texas roots lol...

    Nice. I do some night fishing there also and what I do is I bring my crawdad traps with me and with all the fish I catch I gut and use their guts for my traps. It works great. I bring my kids in waders and they catch them with their hands also.

    One thing to remember is that; it is mandatory to have your CID# on any trap in Colorado

    • @CatchNDinner

      Correct. We had our name, address, and CID # labeled on each trap just to be on the safe side.

    • @evanurie9003
      @evanurie9003 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@CatchNDinner looking at trap sets in your video, the traps where left unattended overnight, without any clearly visible trap indicators of any kind for fishermen or swimmers. No CID# was VISABLE for game wardens. legal keep size is three inches min. from the spike on the head to the last tail plate. I didn't see you checking for invasive species or for legal keep sizes. where you fishing on the west or east of the continental divide? as Colorado has specific regulations pertaining to either side. live take is prohibited in waters west of the continental divide for ALL species of crayfish. Can you make a proper crawfishing video showcasing your gear? I'm not asking for myself, I'm asking for newbies.

    • @CatchNDinner
      @CatchNDinner  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you are not a newbie then you would know that you are quoting commercial regulations not recreational. As for our traps not being identified properly, you are incorrect as they definitely were.
