Put a big long hook on a big long pole, and I pulled Mr. Crawfish out of his hole








Crawfish
Well I went to the bayou just last night
There was no moon but the stars were bright
Put a big long hook on a big long pole
And I pulled Mr. Crawfish out of his hole
Crawfish

See I got him, see the size
Stripped and cleaned before your eyes
Sweet meat look, fresh and ready to cook
Crawfish

Now take Mr. Crawfish in your hand
He's gonna look good in your frying pan
If you fry him crisp or you boil him right
He'll be sweeter than sugar when you take a bite
Crawfish


He was sweeter than sugar! Boiled 'em for about six minutes (no longer!) in my improntu Cajun seasoning combo. The claw meat was insane, but sadly not enough of 'em had big enough claws to suck out the meat. Yumm-o!

Cool! Looks like fun. Beef jerky, interesting. I heard dogfood can be used for cage traps. Former diving buddies had used to scuba dive for crawdads in a lake a long time ago. Missed that trip. If I was a mini-me, this would be a feast! I prefer pacific crabs.

Yeah! We're talking about making cages with dog food next time (grins)
