I was um..l ‘bout 7 years old 48 years ago when we lived in Moose Jaw. The creek was loaded with crayfish and we would often catch them, put them in buckets and spread then into eh road to watch cars run them over. Ya, little boys are ruthless little peckers. But they were there for a long time before I showed up. I doubt this is all a new thing as much as it is people just beginning to notice the crispy little lobsters more.

they have been in the Bow for a long time. The numbers of crawdads in nose creek is astounding, no surprise they made it to the Bow.
Trout all around the world gobble up crawdads, why would our trout be any different?
