Hi ,
Here's a relaxing activity to do with your kids. Hang out at the lake and look for some wild crayfish. They're easy to catch and wonderful to eat. Crayfish (crawfish/crawdads) are really tasty, I like them better than lobster actually. Learning how to catch crayfish is pretty simple, check out the video below for my latest antics in bush fishing:) And if you want to hunt for less pinchy
creatures, come out on a fall mushrooming trip with us, tickets are available now below. (50% sold out).
