| Comments | While walking along the shoreline of the reservoir, I observed multiple exoskeleton of very large crayfish. I set our a baited cage trap for a three hour time span and captured seven large specimens. Comparing these to specimens captured from Blacks Creek in November 2017, and July 20, 2018. I was able to conclude that these were Northern/Virile Crayfish. This appears to be an established population.
Along the west shoreline of Indian Creek Reservoir. |
