Default Crawfish?

How's is this season looking this year? What is the price right now? Gotta craving here in Pensacola, and wondering when I should call my Crawfish man for a delivery.

Average price 2.25 per pound, medium size! Alot of crawfish ponds got flooded after all that rain. Price might go down if catches go up alot!

Sure there is!...Last year was always better than this year. That's why our prices are higher this year.

There is a web-site for prices:
http://www.thecrawfishguy.com/Public...awfish_v2.aspx

Diesel is $3.62 without tax (wholesale) Milk is $5 a gallon! everything a crawfisherman uses, bait, fuel, parts,even crawfish sacks has gone up,up, up!
If crawfish would drop to $25 a sack, it would be like Gas selling for $1 a gallon and a barrel of oil costing $95! NO PROFIT!
Remember one thing, people are willing to pay $60,000 for a new truck, when crawfish were $25 a sack were people paying that much for a truck!
It is a sign of the new times, everything cost alot and it sucks!!!!!

Nearest to Lake Charles is 60+ miles and $2.50 / pound in Church Point, La. This is at Davis seafood so that must be cooked.

2 places in Lafayette for $ 3.00 a pound.
