JTs ain't cheap, but always straight shooters and always excellent quality.

I won the award for the biggest black drum (30 lbs) in the Salty Cajun tourney last summer on a crawfish bought from JTs, so they are good for bait too.

Anyone ever try crawfish for catfish bait?

MY brother and I went fishing with Brad several years ago, and he brought 1/2 a bag of small crawfish to use for bait. They worked fairly good that day for catching Bass.

Brad's [JT's] crawfish come from rice ponds north of Welch. Excellent Teal hunting [usually] in those rice ponds.
