[Brian Griffin]

Where can I buy some fresh crayfish?

Preferable not in Brine.

Tesco

That may not be legal these days

I think they are an alien species to our environment and therefore fair game to take.

Just had a look, there are 7 species of crayfish and you need a license to catch the native white clawed crayfish.

You may be right. Best to check just in case.

You can take signal crayfish for sure.

The fish quay next to Sambucas might sell them.

Our local river, the Tees is wick with them and they are a real pest (they ruin salmon and sea trout fisheries by eating their eggs) . Unbelievably Northumbria water insist you need a licence to fish for them . There's so many in some of the tributaries that blerks catch them in large numbers using a landing net .

Perfectly legal.
It’s illegal to catch signal crayfish and return them.
Loads down here and a nuisance.

It’s also illegal to put them back in if you accidentally catch them.
I’ve had a good few bbqs from the Lune.
