History: Every August/September, when the legal crayfish harvesting period begins, it's Swedish tradition to have a Crayfish party. Paper lanterns, bibs and funny paper hats goes along with it. Although, the harvesting period is nowadays only enforced on Swedish domestic crayfish. Main part of the caryfish is now imported from China, Turkey and some from the US.
