Hmmm, sort of big aquatic woodlice? Careful now, oomans, crises can 'appen when you start munching on exotic species from the wet market...

Definitely a "Wet" market, mine was sitting in a keep net in the harbour when I picked it up. No side effects yet!

To follow up ...

Have been pretty successful recently, small and medium ones.

Here are two that when laid out would be about 15-16cm long with large claws around 6cm:

I had seen bigger but not managed to get one recently, however, in the river today I found a couple of claws along with decomposed bodies:

At 8 cm long, and the shell I could see, it suggests they came from crayfish around 20-22cm long - 8-9". They are there, just cannot get them onto the net - pork fat is the current bait of choice.
