We have been catching some big crawdads out of Falcon for years, not sure they are the same but they are big. They would grab a brush hog all the time.

Bass and men don't discriminate, eat them. Bass- raw, men- boiled and spicy. Cajuns say those crawfish are good, but those Australian mudbugs give you gas

Redclaws reach maturity and weigh around two pounds within a year.

Ring Neck Dove and Axis Deer are invasive as well. I prefer both over the native species. Maybe these new crawfish will super charge the bass protein intake and start pumping out lunkers on the reg. We can only hope.

I really hope thats a possibility, but IDK, a 2 pound crayfish in under a year is pretty alarming. Thing would bust out of a bass stomach like a baby alien if it was swallowed whole

Yeah maybe so. I bet the blue and yellow cat will have a field day on them though.

A three lb bass would eat a two lb crawfish in a minute.
