Question: How many traps and lines can you use while fishing for crayfish?

Answer: There is no limit regarding the number of traps and lines when taking crayfish. Within the current California Freshwater Sport Fishing Regulations booklet, Section 5.35 reads in part: (c) Methods of take: Crayfish may be taken only by hand, hook and line, dip net or with traps not over three feet in greatest dimension. Any other species taken shall be returned to the water immediately. Traps need not be closely attended.

Every person 16 years and older is required to have a current Sport Fishing License to take all fish, including crayfish.
