Not only do they eat crayfish, it is a common food source for larger browns.
yeah
Trout are carnivores. They eat worms, insects, crayfish and smaller fish.

Neither giant pandas nor red pandas eat trout. Brown bears and humans do eat trout though.
Steelheads (rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss) have a diet of smaller fish, fish eggs, insects, and crayfish.

Yes, and make excellent table fare.
Brown trout eat rainbow trout. So do people and other predatory birds, mammals, and fish.

Trout and Freshwater Crayfish
Trout are predators and will eat just about any creatures that they can find that are smaller than them. They will eat: Aquatic insects and their larvae (nymphs) Insects that land on the water, fall in the water or hatch under the water and rise to the surface. Insect larvae that fall in the water from overhanging trees. Smaller fish (including other trout) and eels. Crustaceans such as crayfish and shrimp. Tadpoles and frogs. Worms and snails. Large trout will eat small mammals, such as mice, that fall in the water and even baby birds such as ducklings. Trout will eat the eggs of other trout.
Where I am from in Northern California, in the only place I ever fished for them, I used a flyrod. My local shop told me to use a Calliabaetis dry fly (think that's how it's spelled) and I and my friend had good success, but this may be seasonal, as it was in September of the year and relatively warm. They like to hit close to the bank as opposed to rainbows or brookies who tend to range all over...hope this helps! They will eat any and all flies, smaller fish, mice and even other trout.
