Well most people use a fish head or two in the trap as bait. Any type of raw meat will probably work well.
No need to purge them as they are coming out of clean water.
Just boil the whole crawdad in salt water or better yet in a Cajun mix! The tails are about the only part worth messing with.

we got a lot snow down in the twin cities than up north and temps are a lot higher than it was in 2013. I think we will have enough open water to fish the opener. No one needs to cancel! I HOPE any way
I just got an e-mail from Brent Flatten in the Tower Fisheries Office stating that they hope to get the Dock in by Monday if the river clears of ice.
Will set the trap nets on Tuesday and the first net lift will be on Wednesday. They may even collect eggs Wednesday if there are enough ripe females.
Very good news!
Thanks for your update Brent!
