Going fishing in the morning and plan on dropping a crawdad trap, having trouble finding out what a good depth would be.

Rule of thumb for this time of year is 7 to 15 feet. Make sure to stay out of the weeds.

Well, I ended up at Lk. Roesiger dropping the trap in the weeds in 3 feet of water. #-o Needless to say I got nada. Next time I'll try a little bit deeper.
