Gopro in Crawfish Trap . What is under the Willamette River

Attached a Gopro to my crawfish trap in the Willamette River. This was spawned out of curiosity to see if there are any crawfish in the Willamette. We had zero crawfish.

I don’t know about eating anything out of that river PK, since I was born in the 70’s, it was always a personal goal to never let the water from that river get on my skin.

fresh chicken rarely works for freshwater crayfish. Put it in the sun for a few days in a bag and wait until it stinks. The same works well for salt water crabs.

[@gettosurfer]

Apparently, not a lot of crawfish. That's for sure.

[@hedoesthingspdx]

I think Pike Minnow should be great crab bait!

[@patricia2645]

Hate to say it, but the Willamette is too polluted. Are there any other shellfish, as well? I live in and on the Rogue River, and we have bunches of crawfish. Caught a bright blue one, apparently sacred to some native cultures. I'm glad I left it there, alive.

With 4 million lbs of radioactive waste from Yakima fund site…..yea no thanks. All that water is beyond polluted and then some.

[@S.E.C-R]

What are the white tapping things? And where’s all the garbage that we are always told fills the Willamette?

[@jalepeno5903]

You need to throw a jig with a chartreuse grub down there for those pike minnow. Man those are thick in the Willamette.

And 500,000 gallons of raw sewage...last month? 2 months ago? IDK it happens so often, I can't keep track.

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Looks like a spot we need to go fishing and feed the raccoons

[@rapaciousj]

Sweet perspective! I love your idea of using the PVC pipe to expand the frame of the go pro! Nice work!

[@ricric1]

I like the idea of this would like to do this in the water when crossing the bridge traveling to New Orleans. And the Mississippi River

[@F-N-C]

There are tons of fish right there

[@WayneThomas1963]

That is very interesting to see what's down there under the river. Good video. What happened to your friend Brian? I haven't seen you guy's surf fishing together for a while now. I always enjoy watching your guy's videos, lots of energy.

[@peterstauffer1741]

Thanks for the video. I hoped to see a sturgeon.

[@joshcult745]

Hey ok what part of the Willamette is this.

[@roguedog6799]

We used to go up the top of North Umpqua at Tokatee and Hamburger is the ticket we'd get 1/2 a five gallon bucket in a few hours.

[@randystebleton]

What are the sounds? It moves the with the zip ties.

[@natas199]
