The docks have been paying the fisherman $1.00 a pound for the past few months. Then the docks are turning around a selling for $2.00 a pound. Prices just started to go back up.

Fisherman are catching a shite load in the spillway and in the marsh.


I have no idea where you are but I saw $.99/lb advertised today in Hattiesburg MS, an hour from any decent supply, and it’s been that way for a few weeks. According to the crawfish app there’s at least one place in Nola selling at the same price. Didn’t see any listed at $2/lb.

You want 2 day old small cheap dead crawfish, or do you want medium to select freshly caught crawfish?

Do your homework. You get what you pay for

I thought the ponds “farms” shutdown months ago.

Many drained most of their ponds after Mother’s Day. Major drop in crawfish sales this year obviously.

Man suck my dick

I have catered thousands of lbs of crawfish, I know the difference between smalls and mediums, and bags of floaters. I also happen to know the guy selling at $.99/lb and he damn sure isn’t taking a loss.

Haven't seen anything close to $0.99/lb this season.

$0.99/lb in Hattiesburg?

I'd drive to the hub city to buy them at that price. What fine establishment does your guy stay at, so I can give him my money?

I gave $3.00 lb for live this past Saturday. They were large and very good crawfish, but at those prices it's boiled shrimp for me next time around. Crawfish just don't fill me up.
