Signal crayfish in Cambs?

Question

Hi does anyone know of rivers in Cambridgeshire that have an abbundance with signal crayfish. Also any advice on lisencing for catching them. The enviroment agency info is a bit like an advanced Mensa test!

Answer 1

Get some wicker crayfish traps and bait them up. Check them and re-bait every couple of days. Most rivers contain signals now and it is very handy that people like yourself want to fish them, the numbers are getting out of control. Remember to throw back any native ones that you catch.

Answer 2

no
