Do you have a mummified chicken foot at your disposal?

depends on the source.
In rice fields and swamps, when I was a kid, we would take a piece of plywood out there about thigh deep and stand on it. After about 10 or 15 minutes you could feel critters crawling on your toes.
Then we would hop off the plywood and it would slowly rise to the surface, the crawdads would never know until the plywood breached the surface and we would scoop up about 20 or 30 big ones and toss in the bucket.
Shrimp & minnow traps work good in creeks and such. Frozen canned cat food works good for bait.

I used a minnow trap, it worked great, or catch them by hand. Sneak a hand in behind them, then lower you other hand in front of them, they jump backward right into you hand!

You know where to send any spare catch ( or bait for that matter )but not the cat food!
