Free.
All we needed as kids was a piece of string tied around a hunk of beef, weighed down with a nail so it sank down just a few inches around the shallow rocks of fresh Northern lakes. When they'd clamp onto the meat, we'd scoop them one by one with a pot and they would drop off of the bait as soon as they hit the air.

.35 was in N'awlins as a kid. Folks used to say when they were under $1/lb, we'd boil.

Other than the cost of bait for catching them myself, $8/sack back in the late 80's.

My Dad used to pay 10 cents a pound for beef melt. We baited our own nets and would catch 10 or so sacks in about 2 hours back in the day, so 10 cents a pound? One of the best memories I have of me and my dad

Picking them up in Pierre Part for .10 a pound circa late 70's.

Field run prices were around .50 in the 90's, much lower before that. My dad have a boiling hut in the early 80's and sold 5 pound orders for $6

So then why are the prices so high nowadays? The weather? Popularity of crawfish across the country? Greedy sellers?

Don't start with that crap. GTFO

Having access to a stocked pond to pay of one of my fathers patients bill. Three sacks in about four hours of steaming La. late spring weather. The dads were free to my mind at the time me and my two older brothers just took to it as fun time lo these many years ago.
