Growers and distributors are expecting a very good harvest this season with plenty of water in the fields, unlike with last year’s disaster. However there is the caveat that peak season might be delayed a bit due to last week’s freeze but, overall, numbers and pricing shouldn’t be affected.

Semi related I always buy frozen tails at central market, perfect for etouffee. packaging says Louisiana/cajun official sourcing from farms there. Last CM trip they had all been replaced with the china shit. Not gruntled.

Orleans Seafood off I-10 in Katy had 'em last week.

Lucy never eats December snowflakes and I never eat January crawfish.

Gonna be a good year. Of course anything would be good compared to last year's crawfish season. 

Some of the markets down on the coast are already selling live crawfish. Boyd's in Texas City is currently at $4.88/lb. At this rate I'm thinking an early March crawfish boil might be in the cards. 

Need to text my guy soon and find out when he's planning to start making his Saturday morning runs over to Louisiana to load up his big refrigerated truck.

Mudbugs might be up there with tuddies

Why? It's an extremely common term, been around as long as I've been alive and eating them.  It dates back to the 50s at least.

Mez probably calls them crawdaddies.

I’d like to see you call them procambarus clarkii around a bunch of coonasses

I don't call them mudbugs, but I understand it's pretty common in Louisiana.  In different places I've lived they are called crayfish, crawdads, and crawfish.  Just don't over cook them and you can call them whatever you want.

About the only thing mudbugs are good for now... Is staging dick pics for boils in April? 😉

 

That is one strange fetish, but you do you.

Saw $2.88/lb Tuesday and Wednesday this week. They charge much higher prices on the weekends, but prices are already dropping fast.

Size will be the problem this early in the season

Oddly specific.
