				 Crayfish 
 
			
			I remember this question came up some years back.   I still find them snorkeling around the shoreline.  Bass will follow me around and I can hand feed them if I catch one. 
 I believe the reason there are fewer of them is actually because water quality is better overall.  But I leave it to a marine biologist to confirm.
 
 And btw, cusk are bottom feeders that feed on crayfish too and I usually find bellies full of them when I'm cleaning my catch.
