I remember when I was little, we would tie bacon on a string and drop it down holes to catch them. This was in Virginia, a friends Mom used to eat them.
I used to see them once in a while in the canal at the city park here in Salisbury while I was fishing, of course that was many moons ago.
If it's a crayfish,the last one I saw was in Parker Pond several years ago.They resemble a tiny lobster and a scorpion somewhat.
Can't say i saw any around delmar in my life... Been here since I was 5...
Crayfish or crawfish...
They have them right in Salisbury on Rt.13 at POPEYES! Darn good eatin'.
I see them all the time. I am from Parsonsburg and they come out of the large ditches that line the fields, especially after it rains. Good eating too if you can collect enough of them.
Yep, I've seen them in creeks that deposit into the Wicomico, down in ditches by Tyaskin as well.
My son found one about 20 years ago in a ditch here in Pittsville. I haven't seen one since then until around July of this year when I saw a cat playing with one in out street. Not sure how it got in the street since the ditch is quite a distance away.
Hope I never ever see one. Ugh!
Crawfish, crayfish, crawdad, mudbug. Good eating BUT you gotta let them sit in a 5 gallon bucket of water overnight befor cooking to get the mud out of their digestive systems, otherwise they taste like mud
Saw lots of them in the cold, clear, running waters of the northeast (under every other stream rock), but rarely here.
In Delmar Huh?
Strange.
There was a farm that raised them in Hebron years ago. They had very large ditches along the roads and fields on the farm. THey also had some great parties there formerly know as the Hebron Hotel Party.
I used to catch them in the ditch off Riverton Road in Mardela as a kid. That was 35 years ago.
The last heavy rain we had one was in our yard and my dog stuck his nose to see what it was and when he picked his head up it was attached to his nose holes and he was screaming. We have them in our ditches out back in Whaleyville they are Crawdads. When I was little we also used to have them in our ditches at Parsonsburg.
My farm ponds and ditches are full of them. After a heavy rain they are everywhere in the yard and lanes.
Saw a lot of them in Hebron Md. last summer !
So, did any of you cook them and eat them?
Never have cooked them but I hear you can eat them in Louisiana they call them craw fish and they do eat them.
I was working in Selbyville and went to work one morning and the was a big crawfish on the side walk
