CRAWFISH TIME!

[Sowsage]

We have to get the frozen ones in Minnesota, I contacted the DNR for a permit to import live ones and they said no. We have been getting by with the Walmart ones too.

But, I just got back from a weekend in the French Quarter so I'm full of crawfish (and chargrilled oysters) for a little while.

Guess I didnt know you needed a permit to have them shipped.. .. I suppose for resale as bait that would make since. But for consuming it seems a bit unfair.

I've heard people fly them in but it's not "legal" here. If you have a restaurant license you can do it.

I told the DNR lady I guarantee every one will be dead and none will make it to a lake, that wasn't good enough for her.

We have two lakes that near by me that have lots. You need a fishing license and gear to get them. As a kid I would go with my brother (he was a scuba instructor) to one and I would be the cook of the crawdad boils the students would collect while diving.

More recently my kids would catch them with a just a mask.....made for perfect dinner meals! Bass and Crawdad boils....

All I can say is WAY TO GO TRAVIS!! So cool to see your kids enjoying it like they are. I grew up not far from the Chesapeake Bay and there were crab shacks on every corner. We'd get a couple bushels of steamed spiced crabs, lay the newspaper out on the picnic tables, and spend all day cracking crabs and drinking beer. I'd always get a big pile of crab meat built up with the intention of chowing down. Never seemed to work though because about the time Id get a nice pile of meat ready to devour, here came my daughters. They had no shame and would eat everything I just spent an hour cracking crabs for

Oh the memories....
