Catch us slow because of the cold. High prices low catches.

Kinda like Ammo...

If people would just boycott the high arse prices ...stop buying and put the pinch on the farmers and the middle man prices would get back to normal...

cue: downshift

Supply is down for us at least. People don't realize that these things are living things. There are reasons you catch less fish some days. There are reasons you shoot less birds some days. There are reasons we catch less crawfish

JB, your new truck dealer called me by mistake.

He said to tell you that the new 2015 F-350 King Ranch doesn't have the heated steering wheel as standard equipment, but the Platinum does.

Just give him a call and let him know which way you want to go.

250 sounds great, when I have the whole extended family over to my dock I'll look for that price.

Eta: bad spelling, I'm at an AP wedding ((Gonzales) , disapointed because only two denim outfits and only one in camo.

The farmers around here all say the same thing, they're not catching much due to all the cold weather. If it would warm up for a week, things would change.

When the water is this cold the crawfish don't move. They stay in the grass and don't move into the traps to eat. That makes them hard to catch. Thus the yield is lower.
