 Re: crawfish season
Cool shots! So why are crawfish different colors? Red & then I saw that blue one I've seen a few that color before just curious... Do each of those sacks roughly weigh same amount or you just fill them up, tie 'em off & then sell whole sack for its weight etc?

 Re: crawfish season
did some digging they become blue because of light spectrum, environment etc... so I guess it depends on their stress level

 Re: crawfish season
Last year I cought a few blue ones. Every one was caught in the same trap a few days apart from each other. I thought I had a million dollar crawfish at first. Then I found out different.
