    Snort,

    You will find a HUGE price difference in crawfish. Obviously due to your location.

    The price on the shrimp might be anywhere to $1.00-$4.00 less in Louisiana. It all depends on where you buy from(street vendor, seafood market or your local grocery). The price on the crab claws are about the same anywhere you go(give or take a buck). The $4.00 you're paying for catfish is about right. I know a couple places here in town that run specials for $2.99 every once in a while on the fillets.

    Call Tony's seafood in Baton Rouge. They will ship anything you want to your door.
