I took two small side by side dried up ponds and built one decent pond last July in the Fort Worth Texas area, well the rains came and I now have a large crop of Crawdads that seem to be growing. What can I do since I do not plan on stocking with bass.

not much you can do,i guess you could sale them.i can tell you this much,if you think you have alot of them now wait 6 months then you will find out what alot of crawfish look like.each one carry's about 75,000 eggs under it's tail.

There were some people on here not too long ago wondering where they could get some. You might do a search and see if you couldn't "unload" some.

bwlawler, this is going to be hard too due without bass are some other crawfish eating fish.these guys x like bunny's.i'm not sure if you drainned the pond all the way down you could get them completely out.if you did drain pond it would have to stay dry a long time before they would leave.

Invite some friends over and have one heck of a crawdad boil. I think that if you let people know you would have a lot of people wanting to take some off you hands.

Take a look at www.terrybullard.com for crawdad traps. I haven't used his stuff so have no idea whether his claims are true.

Shane, I doubt that there is anything wrong with crawdads. However, I did find one crawdad mound on the Backside of my dam. It was a good 50 ft. from the water and hope the thing went for a walk and dug a hole. I can't believe it tunneled thru the dam.
