Yeah, Chuck
Remember, if the crawfish tail wasn't curled under
(= dead), it got pitched. If you lived on the bayou, the catfish got a
good feed on crawfish boil day. I'll bet a crawfish fly or a chili-pepper
would work on cats once you started chummin'.
For those who know how to boild crawfish, do you
purge them? I get yea's and nay's.
I heard the fishing in deep-S. Louisiana has gotten
hot, but there are few facilities left able to handle charters.
Anyone know? I've tried to reach a couple of guides I know in Empire, and
still no phone service.

And Crawfish.... I lived in Baton Rouge when I was only 5-7 yrs old. And
the Cajuns in our neighborhood all had 55 GALLON drums, and they would switch
up weekend doing the cooking. They would put all manner of seafood (but mostly
shrimp and crawfish) corn on the cob, okra, potatoes. All kinds of things, and
just get the water boiling and dump it all in together. Then they would pour
it out on huge tables and you just ate whatever was in front of ya.... It was
GREAT, even if it was Soooooooooooooooooooo Spicy. But the Cajuns would NEVER
put a dead shrimp or crawfish in those barrels....The fish would be dead, but
fresh caught and cleaned.and even then, Kinda like Don O said. They would
scale them, gut them, and the rest (head, fins and tail) went into the
pot..Then they would have CASES of beer and Louisiana Hot Sauce there
too...and Bibs sometimes LOL...Cause you would be sooo messy when you got up
from that table, but you didn't have room for dessert for a
while.. Chuck

I'm with Jimmy. Lobster is only really good if you cook them
live. .......... If your have never
had wild freshly caught lobster, prawns, shrimp... you haven't lived.
Amen
brother. For our Super Bowl party we each had fresh 3 lbs
lobsters. Our
Albertson's sells them
live about every
other month and they has great selection
for the
Super Bowl.
