Netting WILD CRAWFISH from a DITCH (CATCH AND COOK)

In this video I caught my own crawfish from a ditch for dinner.

When I was a child, I played in a local creek with my friends. We saw lots of crayfish but never could we imagine that people could eat such a thing. How wrong I was when I worked in New Orleans and found out it was such a delicious dish. I'm from Ontario, Canada. I love your videos and how you catch and clean what you get, awesome stuff!

[@samuelnelson7429]

DeLayne was beaming when he held that blue crab. That man was smiling from ear to ear! Champagne basket was loaded with delicious food 🦞🦀

Growing up in Texas we would catch crawdads in drainage ditches after a fresh rain. We’d tie a string around a piece of bacon and drop it into a crawdad hole. Those were good times.

[@jerrypauling7809]

Yea,I grew up doing that as a young boy back in the 60's here in Texas, I still run traps to stock up our ranch tank hoping to grow big bass.

[@Will97675]

⁠@@jerrypauling7809I need to do that for my catfish pond

[@christophersmith2610]

We grew up in the 70s, in Avoyelles parish and caught all our crawfish this way. Keep up the good work.

[@OutsidetheLevees]

Thank you so much wish I could have been there

[@henrykosky3919]

Man you making my mouth water! That plate look like best in dish!

[@soldiernomore3843]

Hey from the Catskills. New to your channel love your zeal for life. Up here the young folks aren’t taking to the outdoor way of life. They are missing out.

[@clinte9897]

Man I crawfish in north Louisiana, it’s even harder. One tip I can give you is I noticed when you set pillow traps you shoved them straight down. That essentially blocked off the 2 funnels. You gotta set them at a steep angle. I use thin bamboo stick thru the trap into the mud when I get angle right. Other than that it’s trial and error I went out today and caught 47 pounds with mixture of 13 pillow traps and 3 dozen flat nets. It was a lot of work but paid off

[@mikemiller8440]

Thanks again for another awesome video I really enjoyed it and as always I'm really looking forward to seeing the next video

[@keithdugas7766]

Sitting here after riding in parade today eating crawfish watching you living life. Love the background music . You know I always had luck with deep water nets behind sugar mill and by the pump station behind Stacy drive.

[@MrBIGNAWD]

JARED WE USED MELT BACK IN THE DAY FOR CRAWFISH AND WORKED VERY WELL....

[@robmetcalfe8902]

Love the way you cook things you catch

[@louiscamardelle1171]

Jared, another great vid, I do love me some crawfish omelet, cook it often during the season. Might have to go try my hand at catching my own, used to do it years ago, I did enjoy it. You have a blessed day my friend , Keep up the good life.

[@CatchingupwithCam]

Your narrating and music has been awesome. Such great content!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Yummy crawfish too! Keep up the great work!!!

[@OutsidetheLevees]

Thank you! I used to do them all like that but cut down to get them out quicker. Going back to it a bit now

[@edgarvasquez6124]

as a Mexican I can appreciate the background music. got me writing a song about being on the ranch and making food lol. fluffy hit it right on the nail when he said we the same

[@OutsidetheLevees]

Man that’s what’s up love to hear stuff like this

[@youroutdoors5453]

I love saving the tails from a boil to make other dishes with, it gives that extra little kick of flavor. That omelet looked yummy for sure. See you on the next one.

[@Tianda1969]

Growing up in the Hudson valley of NY back in the 80's we used to use sunfish (froze em then cut them from head to tail down the belly turn them inside out and wired them into our crab cages) we let them thaw out overnight in the back of the pick up so they were good and stinky for the crabs to go nuts over. We went for German soft Shell and Blue crabs. we used to use Crayfish for bass bait.

[@carolmiland9665]

Good to see you. Love to you all ❤

[@joanneganon7157]

[@OutsidetheLevees]

[@SmokeEater509]

[@tyband12096]

Finally went out today to try out a spot I’ve been looking out in the middle of no where and it did not disappoint. Got over a sack full with set nets

[@edwardsnelling9536]

Great video, love crayfish just to expensive for me and to old to do it myself.

[@sandranair9471]

Nice catch.

[@OutsidetheLevees]

Thank you very much!

[@streetwork5069]

Down in Hawaii when I lived there long ago we would use coconut meat in our homemade 5gal bucket traps..try it

[@timothylondo]

Here in Wisconsin, people insist on calling them crabs. My PhD having sister asked me if "those are the ones we called crabs when we were kids?" Phd!!!!

[@rebeccaplummer7847]

Yummy 😊

[@tboogz284]

I had no idea y'all see blue crab that far south, mine come right from the Chesapeake. Then all them big crawdads. Good eats

[@WestTennessee]

[@zangarretson4536]

From Kansas, not knowing, but, after you put the bait in and fold it over, how do they get in ?

[@ReelLocos]

You ever tried bacon 🥓 for bait I fill upa bucket with bacon on lines

[@jeevlog97]

Hello brother 🇰🇭 🎉🎉

[@Mel79439]

Do the smaller ones taste different than the larger ones?

[@OutsidetheLevees]

Not really

[@22alexj]

Did I see two crawfish fused together

[@austinharwood9075]

Try hot dogs or bologna as bait. They love fatty foods

[@reeselayne3204]

You should come to wc La and do some set nets with me I’m trying to start a Chanel and would love to talk and learn how this is my gf account

[@pastailike4021]

do americans take out the poop intestine when the crayfish boil is done? most videos end after the table pour

[@rolandleblanc95]

Hit me up if u wanna come to belle river and come sleep at the house boat and go crawfishing have a good night down here

[@cfuzzkennedy]

Crawfish go underground during the hottest months. I haven’t heard anyone say that their water well dried up. Just saying…

[@OutsidetheLevees]

Ok

[@walleyperch]

Not sure why you add so much spice. I prefer the actual natural 1flavor.
