The farmers don't set the price. You think they'd let it get down below $3 if it was up to them? It's not like they're raking in the money here? The price is high because they aren't catching. It may be 3 or 4 dollars a pound, but 7 sacks on 100 acres doesn't exactly leave a whole lot if profit. The price could be $10 a pound but that probably means they're catching like 10 pounds a day
