I searched and I couldn't find a recent thread on the topic.

Probably looking for 8 sacks on Sat AM.

I've called and gotten prices as low as $2.65 and as high as $3.69. Sizes were "mixed field run" and "largest in Houston" respectively.

Anyone got any go-to places in Houston for their live crawfish?

Airline Seafood in town
Blue Water Seafood on the NW side of town.

Check out Single Barrel Crawfish on facebook, they haven't started delivering yet but when they do that is the best deal in town for live crawfish.

I usually get from Rose's in Kemah, but they said Large Select won't be available for a few more weeks. Best they had was Large Mixed right now. Which translates to mostly mediums.

HEB has them for $3/lb (i think). Had a boil last weekend, half were from LA, half from HEB here in town. The ones from HEB were pretty small...

I used to meet a guy in the parking lot of one of his deliveries. Want to say critter runners was the name of the company.

Yeah I called that guy. He said he could get me a "decent size mix - you won't be disappointed" for 2.75. That's pretty close to the best I'm finding right now.

Pulled the trigger on that Critter Runners guy. Delivering to my house for $3.00. Says he's got a pretty good field mix and keeps reassuring me that I "won't be disappointed."

No one I talked to really made me feel great about the size except for the couple of places that wanted $3.50+, but for 8 sacks, that ain't going to happen.

I'll bump this on Saturday and Sunday and let yall know how they turned out.

I go to Boyds Seafood in Texas City, right before the Texas City Dike. Always had good prices. Just called and it is $2.79 and 3.29 respectively.
