So Boudreaux, you got a bunch of responses to your question, but here is something else to think about. I have a 10 acre piece in rice stubble. If I flood in November and start crawfishing in December, I stand to make $9,000 if the crawfish crop is good since prices are currently over $2.60/lb
So for December and January I got $18K of "potential" income with absolutely no headaches from lease holders. And I can utilize the entire tract for crawfish production. Or I could lease you a blind for $5000 of guaranteed money and put up with all that has already been mentioned.
Hmmm, I think I will roll the dice!
