I had White River crawdads in an aquarium. While they were in the
growing stage they were cold blooded killers. They would kill the fish
when the fish (platys) where asleep. When they matured they started
eating mostly vegitables. They wrecked out everything and ate the
plants even though the plants were plastic. I found them to be very
entertaining but if your pond is small or over stocked I would watch
for shereded fins

Crayfish are not recommended for a pond as they are very destructive.
Frogs, turtles and snakes are okay for larger ponds, although these
can be inimical to fish. I prefer to remove reptiles, although that
is a personal decision.

Thank you for posting that as I was wondering the same thing. Should I
eat it or just throw it in the pond?

Incidentally, for long urls like that try snipurl.com which yields:

for the crayfish threads. Also, could you add crawfish for some more
hits?

I kept one in a cold aquarium for years and fed it my dead fish. I
have seen them capture a sleeping tropical fish, so in the tank is not
a good idea.

Nah, I'll rely on the smarter computer folks amongst us for little urls. The
great wide internet is not kind to old imacs and all my computer dollars go to
the kids (two laptops for college kid and dyslexic high schooler this year -
eek!).
I would love to upgrade to the newest MAC. Just have to turn over all the pond
rocks and find some money... it must be out there somewhere!

Who was the Frenchman who sang about that? Ah, yes, I remember it
well, Charles Boyer:

I think that if the truth were told, all of us would find a lot of money in
and around the pond. Expensive fish, filters, food, pumps, lights, etc.,
etc.
