Ha, they call em mud bugs for a reason since there really aren't any free stone creeks or bayous in Louisiana. Btw when did you New Englanders start eating them crayfish. Was Thoreau misunderstood wading around for a day in Walden Pond acting like a frog or was he aiming for a mess of crawdads.
I am pretty sure there are lots of different species of crawfish and some maybe taste differently. I have had some crawfish that were properly cleaned and purged and then steamed. They weren't bad but prefer the low country boil Cajun way if done properly and allowed to cool down served with all the fixins.
