Do you know much about purging their guts? I’ve heard of feeding them cornmeal and also putting them in salty water for a while before cooking them. Haven’t tried either.We would put them in a ice chest out in the yard with a hose running on just at trickle and leave them over night, by the next day they were nice and clean. No need for salt or cornmeal.

:yeah:
Just let them empty themselves out for a day or two with fresh running water the entire time like mentioned. Keep an eye on them though.

Man theres nothing I like more than a good crawdad boil. Treat em like rice. Rinse and repeat until the water is clear. We did this one last 4th of july, crawdad, oysters, elk and alligator :IBCOOL:
Dang that looks good. What size are those? Do you have much trouble with wormy dads at Banks? By that I mean the worms they seem to get mostly in their claws in some lakes.

Do you mean the ones on the outside of the claw joints? Like these? You can eat them. As long as the water you caught the crayfish in is ok and clean then so are the worms honestly. They are harmless as far as that I believe. They are Branchiobdellida worms. I used to raise crayfish and you can treat them with Praziquantel wormer.

These came from near the mouth of the Columbia so I can't speak on worms from Banks unfortunately. Some were like small lobsters :chuckle:
