Lake Powell Crayfish

[Striper Slayer]

Strange question. Does anybody have a picture of a crayfish caught out of Lake Powell? I just saw a video on Neko rigging a plastic crayfish and want to give it a try. Anyone got a picture of an actual crayfish to help match the color?
Thanks!

I'm not sure there is enough room for two Bryant's. sincerely, Bryant. Good luck. The only crayfish I've seen are in the fishes gullet, some still alive. Light to dark brown.

I don't have a pic, but have seen the brown as well. I would also consider the typical greens those colors work in the spring with double tail grubs and jigs.

The crayfish I've seen from Lake Powell have all been an olive green with light orange edging. I've extracted thousands of them while filleting smallmouth.

This is why cinnamon (#176) is such a great color at Powell
