For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I don't know any actual areas, but from watching "What To Eat Now" the other day, it looks like you need a licence, and if you catch any white-clawed cray fish you have to put them back because they are native ones. You are only allowed to catch the big American ones, which are apparantly delicious!!
As per above post, despite the signal crayfish being a serious danger to our native crayfish and to the rivers they have come to live in (they erode the banks by tunnelling into them), it is still illegal to remove them from the wild under the countryside and wildlife act.
However, if you going to remove a few for the pot, im sure no one will mind as long as its not our native (and now endangered) species.

My, My, Billy! Such a Temper, Yet I didn't find the Post to which ye Refer! Crawfish are a Tasty Treat! I has Never known anyone to think of them as pets! Ye must be a First!!
Here, In Arizona, USA, our Crayfish, crawdads, are All Invasive species......there is absolutely No Limit on their Capture, so long as they are NOT released elsewhere!
Boil them briefly, same as Lobster . . . when they change Color, they are Ready to be Dipped in Melted Butter and Eaten . . .
