There are a lot in the Delta between SF and Sacramento. Also in the slower streams and creeks that feed those rivers. Off the Russian rivers, my cousins and I would catch them with hotdogs on a string. They'd grab on and hang on even as you hauled them up.
They live in underwater burrows in mud banks so you are looking for a steep or vertical submerged bank. If you have a fish/depth finder on your boat, nose into shore in a number of places and look at the display for where the drop off is. Then place your trap on the flat at the bottom of the slope.
Bait it with meat of some kind. People claim rotten works best but a co-worker carefully checked many different baits and while they will eat rotten meat, they prefer fresh. The best he found was the cheapest, oiliest cat food in cans. Punch holes with church key can opener and strap it inside your trap.
Check CA fishing regs for license, season, and bag limits.
I guessing here, but it is an educated guess: rice fields are only seasonally flooded and are shallow (crayfish = egret food), so I'd expect to find better fishing in the adjacent irrigation channels.
If you can't find a "crayfish trap" look for a "shrimp pot" - same purpose, same design.
