MudBugs How much and Where?

[Raleigh]

It's about that time so for those that have bought their own sacks where have you bought them and how much are they. I heard that this year will be tough due to the prolong drought so I expect the prices to be real high.

We need a MudBug forum so we can post up the daily prices j/k

Ouch! I can't believe how expensive they have gotten. Back when I was trying to make a living on the vball circuit we used to complain about $0.75 a pound cooked at our favorite resturant in New Orleans. Now I can't even begin to afford to fill up on them.

After Good Friday the price will drop drastically

Raliegh,

Right now they are $3.50 from the place I picked them up last year for Nanza.

I posted of the Nanza thread that I won't be able to make it do to work but I could lead someone in the right direction if needed.

As usual they expect the prices to drop in the next few weeks.

WOW they are expensive this year, I buy em up in LA for our annual for like a 1.99.

is that cooked?

Yes. It is run by the family of a woman I work with, they said that so far the crawfish are smaller due to the hurricanes this past year.

They will continue to get cheaper as it gets later in the year.
