jasons gold Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 remember there are strict laws governing the capture of crayfish so be sure to read the info from the enviroment agency as the penalties can be severe My link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PigeonEater Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 I wouldnt eat any out of the rivers around here mate (Mersey, Goyt, Tame etc), lots of heavy metals, mercury etc that no amount of purging will get rid of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
