Andy, yeah, not much happening in DB this summer for sure, heard some small ones being caught up toward Palatka way etc, etc, etc ......
This past year they started running "early" at RRB, so, am going to start looking "early" this year too ........
(Still got two anchors down there I got to go swimming for)

Funny but true story.... My son, Greg had a new york friend when he was in college and Greg boiled some shrimp.... Greg left the room for something and his friend started eating them.... When Greg got back he asked him.... How are they? His friend Danny said.... Great but they're a little crunchy!... Then Greg showed how to peel them first!

Hey "G", I've crunched a few tails in my day, but, not really into tails
(wind up chewing all the goodie out of em then spitting em out) etc......

I'm still wanting to try frying up some crappie tails, still haven't gotten around to doing that.
Maybe this year I'll make it a point to do that etc, etc, etc ...................

I think Publix has em ya can cook up ......(lol)

I was just wondering, because after I break the head off, the next thing I do is pinch the tail when peeling. I guess I get that from living in south Louisiana most of my life. Pinch the tail is a popular thing to say. haha. Ate a lot of crawfish and you always suck the head(not really) and pinch the tail.
