- In this catch and cook crawfish boil video I got together with my buddy Ronnie Adams from the TV show Swamp People to catch some crawfish. We used pillow style traps to catch the crawfish. We show you what type of bait you need and where to put traps if you want to know how to catch crawfish.

Great show that's the difference between farm raised and wild caught keep up the great work
Well said my friend
Yeah, some people but head bot dat down here in South Louisiana......
This seems like a good crayfish boil. Taking your time and attention to detail makes all the difference. Props to captain Ronnie for sharing his talents. He is one of my favorites from swap people.
Amen. Ronnie is the man. Thanks for watching
Never been fishing for crawfish but looks fun. I'd try it.
You wood probably not survive if you tried this 🚬😳
Your videos make me feel like I’m back home in Louisiana, keep up the great work!
Thank you my brother. It’s a beautiful place and hopefully I will be branching out to other states soon too
When I-10 was first being built my grandfather was a young man and he lived in New Orleans but worked in Gulfport he used to have to take old 190 all the way then when I-10 finally opened he took it. the first couple of years there were massive traffic jams because during a certain period the crawfish would migrate across I-10 and there would be cars parked all over the place with shovels scooping up the crawfish as they traveled across the highway. It would have been nice if they left some of it elevated as to not interfere with the migration.
Man I wouldn't give to go back and be able to film that
Yeah,La hwy 82 between Forked Island to Cameron was like dat.
“Just the Mow”… that I-10 area was between Michoud Blvd exit and ‘No Name Turn Around’! Last times I remember was between 1973-1984! ALSO the ponds on West-side of old Hwy. 11❤❤
As long as i been boiling crawfish (like bass fishing) I’m always looking for some tips-using frozen corn to finish off a pot of crawfish (instead of ice)is a good one-one for you is put potatoes in a smaller basket to boil them as its a lot easier than fishing them out one at a time-also if my son is not around I’m gonna try the orange juice and pineapple juice trick lol
Loved it he is tje best on the tv show he is very real and believable love that show
Thank you and thank you Ron
Amen
Mr Ronnie, good stuff, what a good dude!
Yes indeed!
I agree with you about the liquid crawfish boil quantity. You do not need an entire bottle like a lot of bloggers show in their videos. Less is enough,
Dude like who can enjoy that?
The hardest part for me is letting them soak. I want to dive in and start eating! Shiny new pot with some great how to tips...
You can do it!
I'm in the Pacific North West. I lived in Louisiana for several years. A good portion in Convent, LA. That was the 80s. We always caught our own, but a 40-45 lb sack was $30 (to friends) and $40-$45 to everyone else...
We thought those prices were robbery, LOL! Imagine getting them at those prices, now!
$300 packages shipped to my place, now...
"A hot item" doesn't begin to describe their popularity today. Better for those people in the business, but.., Man -- Oh -- Man! That's some spicy mudbug prices! But! That "Put it on a cracker!" -- "That's money!" dude..? He had a tip that makes sense. Save and freeze some of the boil water. Add it in to cool the bugs. It doesn't dilute your spices...
Man. I have to wonder if that $300 might be worth it
Depending who and what you are.
I get hungry every time I watch one of these videos
The way supposed to be...
That’s def the goal lol
Love the way you talk lol
Ronnie is the man for sure.
Great video and loved your participation in Cals video as well!
Thank you my brother. Hope you are well
Man alive!!!
Yes indeed!
I have never had crawfish but this makes me want to try them 😋
Incredible and fun cooking tips ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Tinee!
A lot of corn cools them down just right. I put half a bag of ice also. Everybody loves Crawfish Sauce se bon.
Amen
Like your show
Thank you man
Great video am waiting for the next one
Man I appreciate it so much. Stay tuned it’s gonna be a busy fall. We will do a lot of duck hunting but there will be hog hunting and shrimping as well
Great channel...loving it up here in Canada!
Unique way to boil and I’m going to try it. How do you think the citrus affects the taste?
Louisiana born and raised new subscriber here. I'm very appreciative of videos that portray our unique Louisiana lifestyles. I believe your channel, along with Kendall Frederick, are exceptional examples of our culture.
Brother, I agree that there's very little flavor added when using fresh onions, garlic, and lemons. In my opinion, they soak up some of the seasoning that should be for the crawfish. I do use bottled onion, garlic, and lemon juices...still don't know if it adds to the taste though....but i just can't help myself. I've never added orange and pineapple juices but will do so next time because I just can't keep myself from tinkering with it, lol. Also, if you haven't done it before, cut the bottom and top off a whole pineapple and throw it in when you drop the crawfish or during the soak...just depends on how spicy you want it. The salty sweetness of the pineapple is my favorite part of the boil!
Bro, keep it up and God bless you and all us Cajun folk in our awesome state of Louisiana!
Thank you so much. I agree that Kendall is one of the best for our culture. If you have time also checkout Nate Verdin's channel "Falling Tide TV". He is as real as it gets. Couldn't agree more on the crawfish boil stuff. I just figure it already costs so much to do it, why not cut cost where you can. But that's just me.
God bless!
@@OutsidetheLevees The only exception to not throwing onions in is if you wanna eat them bad boys! Mais cause you know they be good!
BOI!!! Yes!
Bruh.
Love the educational videos keep it up
Thank you so much
Another great video, thank you
You have more common sense when it comes to cooking crawfish than the majority of youtubers I've seen. I saw one city cajun pour ketchup on his crawfish and stirred it around after he dumped them. Everyone trying something new trying to get likes.
Lordy Lordy So many Commercials 🤯
love your videos they motivate me to breed 🦞🦞🦞 too 🙏
That's awesome
I like spicy so I use the whole bottle of the liquid crawfish boil for that amount of water. We do a handful of lemons, potatoes, sausage, corn, and the best part, mushrooms.
I absolutely love your channel and I also love many types of seafood too eat,mostly cooked but some RAW?. And next week I'm about to be a 59 year old Homeless man living in his 2006 Honda Odyssey that I'm making very livable for me, right now I live in Michigan but I'm hoping to get on I-65 and make my way south???.
That's beautiful brother. The adventure begins!
Lots of frogs an turtles in their also it's a great spot I uses to fish a spot like that in Louisiana also hard to find one your not trespassing on nowadays
Nice! Love catching turtles
i like the taste of crab
From Pierre part and rolling crawfish anything over 2 minutes is crazy, and early season I don’t even boil them I just let that pot start to foam and cut it off they peel perfectly
Roiling boil is dif than coming up to a boil. No more than 5 mins at roiling boil. Thanks for watching
5lbs live bag of crawfish giveaways this spring!?!?!????🍻
I wish lol
In before the "purge vs no purge" holy war
Yeah I didn’t open that flood gate lol
All my boils I have a gallon jug of water pre frozen in milk jug and drop that in to stop boil when fire is cut off. Now when that jug has melted and done its job, I just put it back in the freezer for next boil. Key here is to not have too much crabs crawfish or shrimp in pot so there is room for the frozen jug. .
Yeah. It's interesting how everyone has their tricks.
Enjoyed that do you use the orange juice with crabs are shrimp?
Yes sir.
What do you do with all the cooking liquid left over, that would make a beautiful fish stock ????
It’s not good for anything
I love it we going to say babe after everything
Yes indeed my baby! 😂
Can you do more shows with captain Ronny get him to talk about who taught him how to hunt and catch stuff ne is lay back but smart wwe like him hear in michigan my whole family watch the show now your channel aswell thank you
Yep. I texted him right after I saw this. We gonna try for next week but he starts filming Swamp People on the 25th so it might have to wait until November.
Ya that was great you two did a really nice job we have heard a little of your back ground it would be great if you kinda interview him at the beginning
Thanks a gain from Michigan over and out!!!
How long did y'all wait after y'all baited and set 'em out before y'all went back and pull-checked?
Also, I heard they're nocturnal... but it looks like y'all ran them all day long. What time of day/night and month did y'all work 'em, and did y'all leave any overnight?
I dont crayfish but it looks awesome
Where y'all at Caernarvon? Down the road by EBT?
Shhhh
so many bruhs🤣
It be like that
didn't read all the comments but ... you can likely boil your taters IN the red bag ... melting point of that plastic is way higher than the water.. easier to get them out..?
Man the easy way to boiled crawfish is if someone else boils them, lol 👉 😆 👈
Bruh! Hahahahaha. Ya got me on dat one!
Nice. But i think adding the actual lemons and other veggies add color to the dish
Agree 100. It just adds to the cost without really changing the end flavor. Boils are expensive enough so I try to cut cost where I can.
Subbed from Sweden.
Found you by searching "crawfish" and last weeks uploads only.
Nice video.
Any crawfish in Sweden?
@@OutsidetheLevees Yes of course! We have a tradition called ”Kräftskiva” and it takes place in august, any day in august is ok. We boil it traditionally with loads of dill. But most swedes by frozen turkish or chinese crawfish, where they make it the ”swedish way”. Because swedish crawfish goes for like $25-$30 / 2.2 pounds.
How many litres or gallons of water did you start with?
That’s a 100 quart pot and I filled about a third of it. 1/3-1/2 filled is the general rule I use for any sized pot. Makes sense?
@@OutsidetheLevees Yeah thanks for that mate.. I'm just trying to gauge how much of the ingredients I need to add if I make a batch but still make everything the correct ratio to you. I'll only be making 2 pound at a time. And using around 2 gallons of water for my pot size.. Thanks for the reply.
Yes you only need enough water to cover the seafood. I wouldn’t add too much.
@@OutsidetheLevees Thanks mate.
Make ya smak ya mama... damn wish I was witcha on this one brother!!!
Cmon down bruh!
@@OutsidetheLevees would love do smack some of them ducks over there...
I can see my burner taking that hose down in about 10 minutes if that. How many poke salad brains are having a tizzy Fit about your scoop / sitter sitting edge down on cement; lol.
Enjoying the channel I like to see you and your buddies eating and enjoying what you catch. So let’s see you pinchin some tails and sucking some heads. Keep it up and good luck!
Can't wait to get back after them
Can read a few phases.
bro what do you mean in the last few years?!??! In what part of the boot?? Crawfish has been a weekly thing for my family for generations (when we are catching). Not hating just confused by the statement honestly
Been a while since I made this. Can you remind me what I was saying?
In your opinion what is the best thing to use for crawfish bait
So those bait pellets and some pogie fish seemed to do the trick. The pellets go fast but the fish stays a while
@@OutsidetheLevees ya it’s hard to find them up here where I live
@@bigcscustomjigs2680 you looked online? Purina makes them
@@OutsidetheLevees I will have to look we’re getting the rain we needed right now to start
@@OutsidetheLevees I use the Purina but it's getting way too expensive to have it shipped. Do you have any suggestions? I have heard that some guys will use corn or corn soaked in cooking oil / pogie oil. Do you have any experience with either?
Younger generation now changing everything--next will be ‘Whole-Foods ONLY-Generic SUGAR-FREE’ watermelon, mango, blueberry, strawberry, blackberry, banana, coconut, spinach, lactose-free cheese, bread, etc, etc, etc 😂😂😂😂 LMAO
Brother what on earth are you talking about?
‘First five words’ : my original thought of changing basics…BUT each to their own! FAR cry from ORIGINAL ingredients used for past decades in ‘your’ boil! But whatever floats your boat…good informative videos re: OUR BAYOU STATE!❤
Since there could be snakes and other animals out there like alligators, you carry a gun with you when you do this?
Great video big guy, but there's no need to boil over 3 to 4 minutes after you bring it back to a rolling boil, just saying
What did I say? I forget. My setup sucks so it doesn't come back to rolling fast enough. It's hard to judge.
@@OutsidetheLevees your fine big guy. I sent that comment when you said to cook for 10 min then shortly after you said that you said cook for 5 min at rolling boil. You done a great job. Nothing personal
@@chuckhansen5325 all love brother. Thank you so much for watching
You forgot to clean them
10 minutes is way too long to boil baw
There’s a difference in the rolling boil though. I just have the single burner and it struggles to get back up. Cmon baw
Coo Ya , ecravisse est bon manger . Bon appetite . Vie de Louisiane .
Yeah you right!
Don't know how to read or write Cajun French, learned it from a child
Not
To be ignorant
Can read some of the commen phrases.
You know crawfish dont drown right? I mean they aren't called crawfrogs or crawturtles. You can totally submerge your trap
It depends on the oxygen levels in the water. If it gets warm enough they will have to surface for oxygen. That bit of trap sticking out gives them a place to do it
In most waters it's safer to have the traps sticking out of the water, they will definitely drown
