Easter weekend crawfish

Anyone else notice that the majority of all seafood places had extra crawfish for sale yesterday?
All last week we were told that supply is super low and to reserve them early if you expect to get some. Then Sunday comes and all of the sellers are on fb saying they have extra sacks available.

At $4.75/lb, that tends to happen.
BTW, i cooked about 80 lbs yesterday and they were very good sizes.

Prices caused that. I know quite a few folks who normally have big boils over the holiday weekend, who had other food or boiled shrimp instead.

It seemed that Friday, they were short of crawfish. Several people I know couldn’t find any.

I noticed the opposite. Several sellers were sold out well in advance of yesterday in my area.
I got two sacks from a guy in St Rose. $4.50/lb and nice size.

Everyone in the metro Nola area was sold out by early Saturday, and they didn't even know if they'd be able to fill their Sunday reservations. They weren't expecting any more until Monday or Tuesday.
I drove about an hour to get a sack.

Dude thinks facebook makes him an expert on the crawfish market

Laws of supply and demand are alive and well. That dollar lb jump for Holy Week probably wasn’t a great idea this year

Don’t know what area you’re talking about. We called 10-15 seafood spots in Metaire/NOLA area on Thursday and had multiple dealers basically laugh at us and say they’ve been sold out for over a week

Every place in SWLA seemed to be sold out Friday night. I’ve never seen a Good Friday when places are sold out.
