Crayfish

Crayfish live in the rivers and streams, other flowing reservoirs, with cool clear water. Live in the holes made in clay coast under snags in mattings of roots. These are the ground, creeping and floating animals leaving the shelters in dark time as prefer a nocturnalism. Like to be at spring water. Crayfish fade, that is dump a chitinous cover. The molt begins in June and proceeds till August. On the first year of life cancer fades seven times. From fourth year once in a year fades. The faded cancer has a bluish shade. Catch crayfish on small places a vzabrodka, surveying holes a hand. On deep places of crayfish catch special traps which are called rachevnyam. Their device can be the most various. It is considered the elementary rachevnya from a grid in the form of a copper, attached to a wire hoop. In a grid put a bait from stale meat or interiors of animals. It is possible to put also crusts of rye bread. The bait is bound surely, otherwise it will emerge. Then rachevnyu on a rope from the boat and if from the coast, then by means of a long pole, lower on a bottom and take out in one or one and a half hours that crayfish did not manage to run up after a meal.
