    Wait a minute, in the second and fourth pic, Is that a crawfish cooker I see?

    Oh how I miss my backyard parties in Pearland Tx. Cooking up 75-100 #'s of live mudbugs, two batches at a time. Dumping them on to my prelayered with old newpaper table in my backuyard so that each batch of empty tails and bodies, you just folded up a few layer over ther discards and toosed in the trash can!

    My favorite supplier was under the Kema bridge- between clear lake and the bay, across from Kema boardwalk.

    The big day is tomorrow...I hope all my guys make it through the change. The biggest part is keeping them happy during the tank change and stand mod. Wish me luck.
