preacher Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 They have some amazing patterns don't they. I've seen red, orange, stripes, diamond shapes... Nature is so amazing. But please, photo's of your pond would be appreciated and the Crays if you can catch them without disturbing them too much. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGTTS Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 where i can catch fresh water crays in Auckland? anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 They are pretty widespread. Head out at night with a strong torch and check out your local streams. You will see all sorts of things, and hopefully a few crays! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGTTS Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 thank you for your reply stella. will go have a look this weekend... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Oh, best way to catch them is to put a net behind one and then scare it backwards with a stick. Getting the koura out of the net is another matter entirely! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
