Crayfishman

Purged

I don’t sell just any crayfish out of the lake for food purposes. All crayfish are held in tanks of flowing, aerated well water for several days. These purged crayfish are a quality product you just won’t find elsewhere.

Graded

Going with the cheapest crayfish on the block doesn’t save you much if you get a lot of dead or undersized crayfish in your shipment. All crayfish are graded and sorted according to size. I don’t sell undersized crayfish!

Weighed

Food crayfish are measured by the number per pound. My XL-Jumbo crayfish are 10-15 crawfish per lb. with a 3-1/2” plus body length. Whether you’re looking for one pound or 10 pounds, you will get your money’s worth here!

Who is Crayfishman?

Hello! My name is Gene Check, also known as Crayfishman. I have been harvesting crawfish (in the northern states, we call them crayfish) for over 30 years. I am relocating my Crayfish business from Wisconsin to Michigan in 2025! Michigan Crayfish should be available starting August – September 2025. Stay Tuned!
