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!
