[ryan 772]

i am semi new to fishing and am trying to learn some more before the spring hits.

the pond i fish at i HEARD there are alot of crawfish and few shad so i figured i could try live crawfish?

any suggestions?

how to hook the crawfish onto the hook so it can look naturaly and still swim

idk anything you can tell me will help thanks

I hook my crawfish in the tail between the middle and the body of the crawfish, i use #4 hook or bigger i really like 1 or 1/0 drop shot hooks. get soft shells if you can find them, where i live if you can't get soft shells then the ones with white bellys work.

ok and they will just swim around and u keep them on a tight line?

[ryan 772]

and also where can you get live craws?

thansk

they will craw you have to keep the tight line, i use them in a river they will go with the current but will always manage to get to the bottom.

i catch mine under rock in creeks or rivers.

  under the general form at the top of the opening page is a artical about where to catch crawfish and how to catch them. maybe that will help you out.
