Live crawfish in BR (Posted on 1/18/13 at 6:32 pm)
Looking to have a few crawfish boils this spring, and was wondering where is the best place to find live crawfish in the LSU area. Also, anyone see any prices yet?

Call Phillips Electric. They sell only graded crawfish - #2's and #1's. The good thing about graded crawfish is that there are no wasted crawfish. They're all about the same size so they all cook the same. It's worth the extra money.
Call them during the week and order your crawfish for the weekend. Ricky Phillips is one of the wholesalers on Swamp People. He's been doing it for over 30 years. His brother's son sells them out of their electrical business located on Greenwell Springs road near Flannery.

Kelley's Cajun Seafood, straight down Nicholson, after University Club, on the corner of hwy 30 and 74. Prices live- i think right now they're running $2.99
