Weather makes for ideal start to crawfish season

(KSLA) - Crawfish season is off to a great start year thanks to some ideal weather conditions over the fall and thus far this winter. Robert Shaver, of Shaver's Crawfish & Catering, believes this could be one of the best seasons in years if the weather keeps cooperating. An ideal crawfish season comes from two main factors: precipitation and mild conditions. August was very wet throughout the ArkLaTex, when conditions usually are on the drier side. Ample rain helps crawfish thrive.

Combining that with an unseasonably warm fall and start to winter, the population was able to grow - making this year's crop even better than the prior season's. And prices aren't looking too shabby, either. At the start of the previous season, Shaver's Crawfish & Catering was selling cooked crawfish for $7 to $8 a pound. This season, that price is starting at $6.99 a pound.
Sounds like too good of a start. LINK

I'm sure they will come up with some novel excuse to jack up the prices.

Too hot
Too cold
Salt Water intrusion
Fuel Prices
Bait Prices
Predator problems
Mold
Parasites
Etc, Etc, Etc
Pick one or any combo there of and it will drive prices higher.

I'll just buy and complain later about the price, but price is not the stopping point for me.

I will be glad when this doesn't get posted 36 times a year in all crawfish threads.
