Have always used pillow style traps. They are cheaper to make and will be a lot easier to move around/store. You can never have too many traps unless time is an issue.

We have always used pillow traps as well. But, we have always had a tree to tie the rope and to prop the trap on when the water lacks oxygen and you need to expose the top of the trap so the crawfish don't die. In a field "crawfish pond" type setting, pyramid traps are always the better choice.

I was thinking pillow because I could buy more and spread them out evenly given that I can't tell if any areas would hold better.

Based on map I sent, 40 acre duck pond and 1 mile long ditch by 10 yards wide, how many traps would you set? Not sure I'm gonna mess with slough because vegetation is thick and up close run in with gator likely.
