It is “ I have run” not “I have ran”

The past tense is ran. The past participle is run.

“Mother fricker I have run…”

But the truth is you haven’t run any kind of trap. Just some outdoors wannabe. Probably fishing with a Snoopy rod and reel.

Ah, yes. I sprinkle salt and pepper on my fork for the same reason.

Every crawfish farmer I know employs legal immigrant workers. They also spend alot of money getting them into the country legally!!!

Crawfish farmers are nothing but scam artists.

You know the vast majority of crawfish farmers don't have anything to do with the prices, right?

Of course you don't, because you're just a dumbass internet tough guy.

The clowns in Pierre Part are the ones who set the prices,pal. You talk to anyone in LA that is a farmer, and they will tell you exactly that. It is the so called "market".

That's quiet funny!!! Supply and demand creates the price of crawfish. The reason prices aren't dipping is that riceland is now boiling and flash freezing them whole. After doing so they are shipped all over the country. As this continues to happen the price will continue to stabilize.

Actually the big buyers in Houston like HEB set the price

When the Houston Metro stops consuming more crawfish than the state of LA then the prices will be dirt cheap again so don't bet on it anytime soon

People like you who think they know about the crawfish market just because they live in LA and eat crawfish are more aggravating than Duck hunters who lease rice fields so they think they know about rice farming

What if you don't have to peel it like a child? I guess you get flavorless tail meat.

Actually the owner of Riceland Crawfish who recently passed away set the market for years and years. Not sure who sets it now

They should just put the seasoning on their fingers and cut out the middle man.

Who do you think told him what they were willing to pay and if they were short or long on weekends

He was the scapegoat for people complaining the price was too high or low

Houston supply and demand is the reason the price changes on a normal week

LA demand will make price jump for Mardi Gras/Holy Week

I actually bought many many thousands of lbs of crawfish from one of the biggest restaurant and catering companies in Louisiana as a side hustle. . Home base is actually in BR. Remember in 2008 how expensive it was to fill up with gas or diesel? How about the price of crawfish then? It was expensive. Fuel controls food and consumption. Wait till 2022 and the price of crawdads.
