I just came across this video of yours Paul, didn't notice that you uploaded it, and I absolutely loved watching it!! I like how you said 'free food', and what a buzz to collect and cook the catch, 2 thumbs up from me! 👍🏾👍🏾

This is probably the best thing I’ve ever seen on KZfaq. Going cray fishing for the first time this year. Loads of great tips. Thanks. Nice Lee cameo, classic Essex geezers. Nice one brother.

Proper straight to the point guy. Proper enjoyed watching too.

Fantastic video Sir made my mouth water

- That tip about twisting the tail fan to pull the gut line out was gold! And honestly by the end when you were flouring them up and frying them off my stomach was grumbling. Haha. Could have really shown that sandwich a good time. 😆👍🏻🍽🦐🦞

Paul, you are an English eccentric and a genius. I have two traps, excited to try them in the river this week, thanks for giving me the knowlege i need to prepare the crayfish. Best wishes!

Hi Paul hope you and your family are well mate , couldn't sleep from midnight on till 3 am so I decided to watch a load of your vids again.. your video's are interesting and funny at times. I like a person who is down to earth and honest. Always be yourself and you have my respect I feel we are lot alike Paul. I live in the West of Ireland a a place called Oranmore 7km from Galway. I grew up in Upminster in Essex and I loved it. Paul remember you did an adult video towards the end of the year , Please please could you do another one this year. It was all the swearing you'd cut out . You had me in tears from laughing .

Why do we need permits for these? If anything there should be a reward.

Wow, talk about perseverance. Way to hang in there till the reward. Good video in spite of the crappy weather. Keep em coming.

Good to see an easy way to cook them, our waters up in North Yorkshire are stuffed with them

Hi mate, I watched your vid last year while researching catching and cooking crays, got the same stove from go outdoors you have cause of your vid and yeah, one year on and I'm doing my own catch and cook vids and loving it. I would highly recommend you find a clear running stream with em in and try them, they are so much tastier than from a lake, they don't have that after taste of dirt. Awesome vid mate, thank you for the inspiration 👍

Its one of my favorite things to do in summer. I catch them up here in the west midlands. Small river at the back of my house is full of them. You get some decent sized ones. I think its down to the fact no one catches them so they get to grow so big. Roll on summer so I can get back out there 😁 great vid

Great stuff....just some butter n seasoning in your pan mate ...done a couple of mins 😋....they don't need all that fancy stuff....yum can't wait 😋

Great video mate, well worth watching

great video, recently caught 8 big ones at a lake [ 7 are being stored in dechlorinated tap water to eat and the biggest one is in a display aquarium]

Cheers for the very informative and entertaining video.

Nice video - inspired to catch ‘em and eat ‘em 💪. They are good just boiled and then with some lemon mayo but I like your crumbed and fried idea 👌

Definitely needed sweet chilli. Awesome video

I live behind this lake, and could literally throw a stone in it. I take my children up there regularly and we get loads out. Used to be a crayfish stock lake. Cooked a load on Friday….

Superb mate I have a small lake close to me m going to try, great enthusiasm, subscribed keep em coming mate.

Awesome video! I'll definitely be trying this

They made me feel hungry. I bet they're really nice with garlic butter or mayo. Good job!

Great video .Tasty wild food and ridding the lake of an invasive species.Your subscribership is rapidly growing..well done

Absolutely brilliant, love it 👍👍👍

Well done you. Good British enterprise with those damn invasive beasts. I thought at first that your method was a bit overkill but not now, having seen the whole show. A fantastic feast virtually free. Go Outdoors to the rescue yet again.

Great content, keep 'em coming!

Tramp Scampi. Very good. Nice video 😂

You sir are brilliant! That lake is a goldmine. This is a really excellent video...well done! Also, that's a great cleaning tip, thanks! Have you ever thought about selling them? I wish I had a lake like that over here. Pickle those little fish. Make your own sardines.

Interesting stuff, looking forward to more.

Heard about you on Smash Fishing's KZfaq channel. Love to watch catch and cook videos! Really enjoyed watching you today! Keep up the great work!

Just found your awesome channel. Great honest video, love the way that you tell it how it is! Looking forward to watching more of your videos mate. Thanks for sharing. Atb. Take care, Steve. 👍👍

The “token gesture” comment well made me laugh. Good clip thanks. Will definitely have a go at this

Because of you my computer monitor is stuffed (I was licking it when you were eating that AND drooling)

Brilliant Vid, and I can say I was dribbling whilst you was eatin'...!

Wonderful

Just came across your video.....excellent content! One of your commentators recommends you try catching them in a clear-running stream.....I suggest the River Roding upstream of Buckhurst Hill where the river runs fairly quick and clean (or used to) over gravel. There were a lot of freshwater mussels upstream of Chigwell Lane too. That was my fishing ground when I was a boy. The M11 runs through the valley there nowadays so access is trickier now. Ps I live in Australia now, shortly to head up to the tropics. Keep up the good work 🤗

Looked really good well done

Good video, free crayfish, yay! Try sautéing them in a couple of knobs of butter instead of the oil for next level taste...

Great video!!! What s brilliant use of resource!!! A little Lemon with it maybe🤔👍🤗.. Brilliant!!!!!!!!

Happy New year my friend hope you and your family have a great new year and all the best mate 👍 and thank you for your tube channel 😊

Paul, crayfish trapping licences are free mate, just go to the EA website, fill one in and boom, youre in. Nice one buddy. Just remember its an offence to take em away live...…..risk of reintroducing them to unaffected waters....if there are any left!! Swainiac

Scampi = crayfish tails. Good work!

I need to send you some of our seasoning from here in south Louisiana. I like to boil 50 - 80 pounds of crawfish at once.

Yeah! that cray bagette looked right tasty mate good vids like em a lot.

I like fishing for all sorts of aquatic creatures & mainly self taught. I like your video, I've never seen crayfish cleaned like that with the tail. Beats purging them when you don't have a lot of water to use

Grew up on Herts/Essex boarder -Used to do this as a kid!

Thought you were going to give half to your pal. 😂

Loved this video as did all your others its such a shame you stopped posting more..much missed.

best vid on catching n cooking ive seen dude ;-)

Again another amazing video keep up the good work Paul 💪

Thanks for sharing , that is a great recipe, I love shrimp poor boy's. Now to catch me some crayfish. Thanks all the way from California.

You should try using the crawfish for bait, and also watch a how to cook crawfish louisiana style you might like it

Good grub mate😊😊

Love ur video

where can I catch these also from Essex myself

Don't get me wrong. Love your accent. Me? I'm a Suffolk bor.

We have those little buggers on this side of the river,I have even had one take a plug when Pike fishing.

USA- southern Oregon and going again for crawfish- we have native signal and 3-4 invasive s now; ballast water fro aisa and idiots that have them for bait or house fish tanks go out and dump them where ever and they attach to boats and lines and move.

Subscribed Sir! Great video! Cant wait to see more.

Bang on, nice one brother. 👍 ☺

I love Crayfish, Your food looked lovely ;0)

Nice one, mate.

Great video going to try this thanks

Lived all my life in a crayfish paradise - Texas. Of course, we purge them and cook them whole with a bit of seasoning. Also, fried and lots of other ways. Cheers,

Im gonna do my firet cray fishing in calgart in 2 weeks signal crayfish you got my sub brother

Your videos are awesome. Hello from Florida

Also reccomend chucking some Chinese five spice in the water, its pukka mate

that looked so tasty...

You sure know how to live mate :)))

I love your letteral thinking brother . Plus i think you are fishing rather than trapping , which is what the license is required for . And as you already have a fishing licence, hey presto .

can i go and catch then in march and in day light

That looks seriously tasty

Poor boy sandwich is what we call it in America .can't beat it 😋

Looks delicious!

I am sure you reloaded this video, one of my favs!

Where could I go crayfishing in South east England preferably around the M25 or in Sussex?

Anyone know where I can go to camp and catch cray fish in Essex?

Good ldea to bait your landing net

Never mind what you didn't catch, you caught dinner and removed some pests.

Keep the uploads coming geeza 👍

lovely job fair play

Fantastic video. License & net ready I'm off to catch some of me own. Could I possbily get the receipe for the 'Panko'? seems like it could be bread crumbs but have never heard of it. Cheers alot

Proper scampi roll

So many 😯😯👍👍😊

It looks like you're putting all your older videos back on Paul, good on you mate. A bit of thousand Island dressing or a sweet chili dipping sauce would have made your taste buds drool, a bit like you made mine do. Going back through all of your videos as a kidney stone is making its slow journey through my tubes and it's not conducive for stalking deer today.

I've heard that bacon on a hook works as well as they hold on for grim death ....

To catch lobster on a rod. Put a treble hook on and a small gold hook the smaller gold hook the better put a square piece of bait on the trebel and put a tiny bit on the gold hook. Cart it to a stand of sea weed in the sea kelp. Wait a while it always picks the small bit up you eindvin a you have a lobster

SORRY CAPS WONT TURN OF - JUST WATCHED A GUY FROM USA DOING THIS. HE ADDED SALT TO THE CRAYS AND ADDED COLD WATER FOR FIRST CLEAN, THE MUCK THAT CAME OFF WHEN SALT ADDED WAS SURPRISING

Bet they'd be well nice in one of them Thai curry kits from aldi

I thought you should not return a signal crayfish, or in this case to the pond? Good vid though.

Charming language

It’s Rick Grovellers brother

Great loophole given its illegal to return them to the water 👍

I have to ask, why so much processing. Salt water purge, live boil, add corn, onions, mushrooms, sausage, swamp dust. Grab a beer pinch tails, suck heads, eat till falling over. Otherwise, love your video. :-)

Says to boss: I'm gonna take my lunch break now, gonna go and grab myself a sandwich. Be back in a few days.

We doing a little different in Louisiana

Great Channel!! Do you know anywhere in the Southend area I can catch crayfish?

There should be a National Campaign to encourage people to catch and cook signal crayfish to try and reduce the population. Sadly i cant eat any kind of fish but they look so nice!!

You ever make it to Texas give me a holler Louisiana Born and Raised on crawfish

Looks rather fiddly. But great fun to catch and eat. 🇺🇲👍
