- In the hot months of summer the dams start to dry up but boy do they produce. So sit back crack open a cold one and enjoy my catch and cook with a Louisiana boil up #crawfish #fishing #yabby #yabbies
American here great video. The cleaning process put the hose in a bucket and leave it run for half hr to a hr. The crawfish will spin and tumble and the muddy water will flow out the top.
I personally get my boil going with water, lemons, onions, seasoning, and liquid crab boil, ( the water should be dark red.
Then add potatoes, mushrooms, sausage, lid back on 5 minutes
Then add crawfish, and hard boiled eggs peeled. Lid back on 4 minutes
Then corn, mussels and shrimp lid on 3 minutes
Then dump into a cooler/ ice box and cover with seasoning, close up and let steam for 10/20 minutes
Shake the cooler to stir everything up and enjoy.
Oooo boy now that sounds good OK I'll.give that a go cheers for that 👍
Yeah i eat cajun crawfish all the time because i live in Louisiana. this is pretty close to how we do it. But as the night progress the craw fish get hotter with each batch you cook haha! He’s going to need a bigger pot!!!
You shoulda mentioned that he was peeling them wrong. I didn’t see any “mustard” on the ends of those tails he was eating. That’s the best part!
Didn’t you hear him say that there was a drought? People have no idea how our bad our water situation gets sometimes, especially if you’re living off tank water which is a lot more common than people realize. Almost our entire country is desert and many places can’t afford to waste that much water, especially considering that we’re the driest inhabited continent on Earth. Water in many places isn’t just something you can waste like that so sometimes you just have to make do.
@@Lucifurion homie was more pointing out that unless you want a bad flavor, and even possibly get pretty ill, you would want to thoroughly clean the mud bugs. Not a single person attacked your country's clean water scarcity, calm down
Really nice that you released the little one and eggs, sustainable fishing.
Always do mate gotta think of the future 🤙
I feel like a cajun man somewhere is offended,cause your cleaning method is hilarious! You should e running water over them until the water is completely clear throughout. These are incredibly dirty!
Good to know mate
& he called craw daddies "yabbies" That boils my beignets!! 😆😆😆(just kidding)
dude messed with raw pork and fish the ate ceezels don't the think hygiene is really his thing
And he didn’t
Put any lemon 🍋 or orange 🍊 juice 🧃
Yes, I am. Not really though.
Crawfish, crawdads, crayfish, and and now another name, yabbies I have worked in a fishing industry. I fished all my life. The one thing I have learned is that there are many names for every single fish that’s out there.
Yea mate sooo many different names 🤙
More for the list craws,crays,crawpuppy,tiny lobster,lil pinchy thing
"Mudbugs"
In West Oz we call them Jilgies and Koonaks also have Red claw and blue marron and yabbies black marron
Catching "yabbies" with "Cheezels" is the most Australian thing I have heard today. 😉🤣
Hahaha they love them 🤙
Here in Louisiana, we let them soak for atleast 15-20 minutes after they are done. That's where the real flavor comes from. Loved the veido.
Cheers bud I'll be doing another boil soon the write way hahaha
You are THE happiest Australian in Australia mate!
Haha cheers bud 🍻
That pond is so small. Wonder if you even need any bait at all.
Just a tip mate with the pyramid nets . Tie the rope on the bottom ring of the net and they pull in a lot flatter in the dams
Hahaha yea I have been meaning to do that for so long but never get around to it lol 😆
Best flavors are in those heads you chucked away. Crawfish boil is my #1 favorite meal. Well done mate. Made me hungry!
Yea mate if u check out my latest video I suck the juice out of the head taste soooo good 🤙
Let them soak in the seasoned water for about 15 mins with the fire off for more flavor, looks great either way! Adding squeezed citrus and the rind to the water adds flavor as well.
Thanx for the advice if you check out my latest video I did just that 😀
Needed to cut up a couple of lemons in there too when you were making the sauce
Next time mate next time lol
Yeah that's some spicy kielbasa man you can't go wrong
my guy......
nothing to change other than that 'mates' invite. cannot wait for this years
Hahaha cheers bud 👍
Love the way he eats those cheezels with his hands right after he has been handling all that bait 🤙
Hahahaha.im still alive lol
Ya gotta fortify your immune system through exposure
I grew up in the deep south! Drinking beer our of the dame cooler as the fish and eating a sandwich after your hand was in the bait was part the course!
My wish is to have a Volunteer Company come and and make a stream , and some how build the damn bigger and have it flow into a stream or lake and put some grass out there , I think they would Multiple even bigger and better Yield
OOo yea that would be good they would love it 😀
Those are some good-looking craw daddies.
They are mate love it
Looks like it’s a damn good job. We called him crawfish or crawdads, but Yabbie works lol. We also have butter and garlic in a dish to dip the Crawfish meat in.
Cheers bud yea next time I'll be doing a dipping sauce 👍
I'm from Texas and I think you got it right. Enjoy my brother food looks perfect. Glad you like it. Zabbies are a pain in the but to peal but damn there good.😁😁
Thanx mate they are so delicious 🤙
Run the water over them in the tub until the water is clean. Boil them till they float , soak them until they sink, perfect peel every time! Try adding some citrus as well! $10 a pound for live crawfish right now in Louisiana so you’re definitely ahead of the game!
Next time bud I'll get it done rite cheers 🍻 🤙
@@adventurewa3242you got it done pretty good the first time! That is one hell of a good looking platter!
@joelbuff3254 bro it was haha can't wait to do it properly but
I heard it was a bad season for them this winter; it was so dry last year in Louisiana. A real shame, I remember them under two bucks a pound a couple years ago. Seasonal variations. But Louisiana is generally wet, and it's been wet this winter here in Eastern Texas. I remember when the Cajun boys would come to my local grocery store some weekends of late winter here, with a truck full and set up the boiling pots to custom boil them for you or you can take them live..
Great vid! One thing; if you look at the tails they are 5 lobed. Take the center one and bend it up and down til you fell it break then bend it side to side to break it loose that way then oull and the entire gut line will come out as you pull it attached to that lobe or fin. Probably work on those big ones as well.
Also if you keep the smaller ones you can roll them in flour and pepper to dust them and then deep fry them in oil for 8 minutes or so and then just eat the tail shell and all!
Sounds sketchy but tastes great! The shell cooked in the oil is just like eating a potato chip or crisp is what yall call them? Im not putting you on here youve got to try it.
The legs are the same and each one you bite gives a distinct lobster flavor as well. Makes me wish they were all legs! Lol S. Texas here by houston
Trust me! Youll eat um mire like that after your first go.
OK mate no worry I'll give that a go cheers 🤙
this is like a budget version of Louisiana boil up i seen them they put so much sauces in it and juices its crazy
Next time mate next time
Thanks mate for leaving females and babys behind. Good video
Every time mate 👍
Please please post more videos like this I’ve been looking for some one to watch who is consistent! Good luck
Cheers bud I try my hardest to get a video ever week hope you enjoy it 🤙
That looks good!
Cheers bud 🤙
Good cooking and catching!
Cheers bud 🤙
You nailed that boil!
Cheers bro 🍻
Great feed, you lucky duck. Love yabbies. Great vid.
Thanx heaps bud 👍
Those crawfish are still very dirty. Next time, purge them in salt water a few times. It will clean their system out and get rid of any dirty taste. Trust me, you will definitely notice a difference. Pu them in a 5 gallon bucket with about ½-¾ cup of salt. After 20 minutes, dump water out, clean bucket, put more salt in it for another 20 min soak. Give a third and final soak in another bucket of salt water. Then, it's off to the boiling pot.
OK sweet I'll.give that a go thanx 🤙
Sounds a lot better than leaving them in running water for half an hour like so many here are saying. They have no idea how dry it gets here though and in many places water’s not something you can afford to waste like that, especially when it’s been a really dry summer because if that dam he fished in looks like that then the nearby water reservoir isn’t going to look much better. I’m on tank water despite being 20 minutes outside of a town of 50,000 people and the last 5 years we’ve had to buy water for our tanks so for those of us who can’t just turn on the tap and leave it running like that. I usually have to leave them to purge in the laundry sink overnight changing the water once but using salt water like you said sounds a lot better and less wasteful than leaving them in running water. Thanks for the tip.
@@Lucifurion I didn't realize you were on tank water. It makes sense now. That would almost be wasteful.
I'm going to go pull the plug on our dam and going to catch our crawdads. Lol We also call them Crawfish.
Get onto it mate 👍
Looks bloody good 👍
Cheers bud
@@adventurewa3242 no dramas nothing beats fresh caught yabbies and marron the cook was bloody good
Just throw corn, potatoes,spices in that pond,make a huge fire around it,and have the Guinness record of biggest crawfish boil in the world.🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hahahaha that would be funny
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great video mate 👍
Cheers bud
Loved that video! You can come across the pond to Arkansas and have this kind of food all summer. You just can’t call them ‘yabbies’ 😂 Slap Ya Mama’ is a staple
Hahaha good food but 🤙
Only problem I see is that he released some. Always release them in the boil and invite some friends. The smaller ones still eat. Surprisingly there's little difference in the size of the tail meat. With that being said, to each his own. Great video. Onward and upward 👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️
Cheers bud 🤙
the claws are very tasty, obviously more time consuming but over beer and chilling it doesnt take to long
Yea.mate I normally do eat the claws sooo.good 😋
Try adding mushrooms to your boil vegetables. They absorb huge flavor from the seasonings.
OK sweet will do thanx 🤙
Not exactly traditional American style but ooh boy I would not say no. A+!
Cheers bud 🤙
You're the closest Aussie I've seen to doing it right.
Cheers bud
It's crawfish. And yeah we clean them before we boil em. But, hey to each there own. Not offended at all. 😊. I use lots of lemons when I boil mine. Good luck.
Yea mate here we call them yabbies if u check out my latest video that's a huge up grade from this video hahahaha
hello this is the first video i seen by you, i really like how energetic you are your amazing keep it up bro love from the caribbean 👍
Cheers bud really means a lot plenty more videos to come bro 🤙
you gotta come to louisiana to try how we actually make them. if that water aint orange you didnt put enough seasoning, not even close and the crawfish should all be a very deep deep red with the corn taking an almost orange tint. real cajun seasoning is hard for people who are not from here to eat and most people would never put the amount of pepper we actually do. its just astronomical lol .
I would love to go there and try it one day mate 👍
Just subed bro. Love the channel. I knew once u picked that corn up and took a bite u weren't going to put it down. That the best part of a crawfish boil for me and mushrooms if you like them. Little baby mushrooms not the big ones. But for a first boil you did pretty good. But then again make it how u like it. Hope to see more videos brother.
Cheers bud o yea how good is the corn haha. I'll definitely use little mushrooms next time. And thanx for the sub cheers 🍻
I would have soaked the crayfish over night and drained refilled at least 4-5 times. What them fish were in was in them fish. A good rinse off yeah but a full flush. Helps the flavor of the meat so much.
Cheers for the info bud 👍
You guys have a lot more fresh water than we do!
Orange juice goes well in it with lemons
Sounds good mate 👍
Looks sooo good! I'm licking my lips Lol 😋😂
Oooo it was hahaha
Love it brother making me hungry😋😋🌱🌱🌱🦞🦞🦞
Sooooo good
in Portugal we cook it only with water, lemon shell, when starts boil the salt boil it for a couple of minutes and its done.Or you can make a seafood rice.
or a "cataplana"
Sound good mate I'll have to give that a go cheers 🍻
@@adventurewa3242 you wont regret. just put the yellow part of the lemon.
his way It preservs the natural flavour of the seafood. ok cheers
Mate I was sort of hoping you were gonna go in deep dive and hand pluck those bad boys out of the dam🤣🤣🤣would make awesome footage👍👍👍 😁😁😁
Super awesome cook up 🍺🍺🍺found a WA supplier that sells the 4DFlavours brand so I'll give the ago , cheers for the heads up 👍👍👍
Cheer Andy 🍺🍺🍺
Mate that is a good idea I'll have to find a clear dam hahaha 😆
Wow nice what a what a catch
Cheers bud 1🤙
Always wished to visit your country but just can’t get there. Love your accent mine is so hillbilly but I don’t get red neck about it 😂
U should come visit Australia awesome place hahaha
It's completely legal to pull these out of rivers and lakes in the US. Interesting to see how your methods differ.
I wish it was here mate we can in some.creeks and rivers as long as there is no native animals and u have to use certain nets to many rules here 😕
Really amazing. I want to move there!
Haha awesome place 🤙
Me too, they live in a hunter's paradise. From what I've seen it is a target rich environment. Everything from wild boar to feral camels sounds like a great time. Throw in some "yabbies" and now it's a party.🎉🎉🎉👍👍👍
This is the most skibidi video I’ve seen today 😂
I dont know what that means mate haha 😂
Awesome session bloke
Cheers bud 🤙
Always add a beer and orange juice...sooo good 👍. You dont want a beer with to haevy of a flavor bc it will cover up the seafood. If you like lemon can add that... oh i seen no garlic i believe thats a sin ...😅😅😅😅 wish the best for ya .
No worries mate I'll definitely give that a go on the next one cheers 👍
Waste of beer and OJ... That isn't Cajun. Drink the damn stuff. Lemon is just fine
@ar-sithf.austin3744 I never said it was Cajon said it tastes 👍 good. 50 million ways to cook bugs, yabbies, crawfish whatever ya call em
Delicious looking!
Cheers bud 🍻
It’s Western Australia we don’t have yabbies here marron ,jilgies or koonacks
OK mate
Lemons in the boiling water next time bro, throw a couple of eggs in the basket too. Nice video though
Cheers bud will do 🤙
What are you doing mate! Yabbie meat with little and not at all salt and spice. It is as sweet as like a urchin. It is beautiful tasting . On its own a wonder to behold. Very delicate is the nature of its flesh.
Plain yabbies are the best yes they are 🤙
Where did you get those nets? I’ve looked everywhere online and I’ve found one kind of similar but nothing quite like that. Ours in Louisiana don’t come up on the sides to keep everything from escaping, it’s just a bottom net that flexes down but you still sometimes lose some crawfish as you’re pulling your nets. I’ve run into one guy who had some just like that but he said his were homemade.
Hey mate I made a video 1 week or so ago saying wear I.got my nets and bait bombs from check it out and it has the links in the comments 🤙🤙
A beer would go good with that.
Your not wrong mate hahaha🤙🍻
Very nice
Cheers 🍻
I had to wait to see that you were talking about mud bugs. New name collected. Hah.
Hahaha yep pritty much the same thing lol
Those don't look like common cockles, as cockles usually have wavy ridges along the opening and look a bit different on the inside. Those look more like Donax clams. Also, being from the states, I'm not familiar with the term "marin", but I think you are using a slang for what we call crayfish or crawdad. But, I think we can both agree, they look amazing and probably taste even more amazing. Thanks for sharing your video.
Yea mate everyone calls everything different things but they all taste delicious hahaha 🤙
Our "cockles" are a bit different to yours, but ours vary a bit in different areas in Oz.
If you add a stick or two of butter and halve a couple lemons squeeze and toss the lemons in too with the rest of your seasoning you’ll love the difference but I’m jelous of the amount that body of water had in it 🤙🤙
Cheers bud I'll do that next time 🤙
Add a stick of butter to a rolling boiling pot then add your crawfish covered for 10 to 15 min cut off the fire dump a bag of ice into the let steep for 30 minutes and enjoy
Get a bigger pot
Yea mate I have pritty much done that on my last video check it out sooooo much better 🤙
Wish I was in your neck of the woods I would give a burner and a 30 gallon pot that I don’t need anymore. I have more than I need. I’ll check out the video you were talking about.
are yabbies okay to eat? had no clue what they were so googled them and the wikipedia article calls them endangered (but that wild populations remain strong somehow?), and i couldn't find much more information on their status thru cursory googling
Yea.mate they sure are they are a pest here in WA Australia taste amazing hahaha
Great cooking mate👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cheers bud 🤙
@@adventurewa3242 I wish you get more rain yer way mate to fill up the dam.
The broth would be something amazing when hangover 😮like I.V. medicine mate
Hahaha your spot on hahaha 🤙
Nicely done!…… next time make a garlic butter sauce to pour over everything…
OOo mate that sounds good 👍
I’m from Arkansas 😊
🤙
Those are the best bass bait ever¡
Not to many bass around here hahaha
@@adventurewa3242 lol I figured. I’d love to plan a fishing trip out that way one day but I’d be worried about all the toxic creatures that I might come in contact with. Where I live in USA, we don’t have anything toxic besides possibly a brown recluse spider or two. All my life Ive never had to worry while wading through water, fields of weeds, forests, anywhere. I did live in Oaxaca Mexico for three years. That was a great experience. I did some fishing there and herping. Caught some tarantulas and scorpions. Caught a tailless whip scorpion too. First time in my life I’d ever seen one lol I thought it was a new species back then 😅 lol It was really creepy. Lots of different frogs too. I always wanted to pick things up but my exe was always yelling about me not touching stuff bc I’d get sick & me not knowing which animals were safe and which ones weren’t, I couldn’t explore the way I’d have liked too. I caught some poisonous stone fish too and actually used them for bait a lot of times thank God then never spined me! I had no idea.
Those stone fish r pritty crazy. Lots of stone fish here in Australia and most things are poisonous here. Most things are out to get you but u can't think about that normally if you leave them alone they leave you alone bit awesome place to live. 🤙
Bro got my mouth watering 😅 I know what I’m gonna be eating in a few days
Hahaha get on it mate 🤙
Man that dam is dry you need some rain out there where ever it is
We do mate it's been a very dry season unfortunately
i am hungry just from watching
Hahahha I'm still hungry hahahaha
I'm in Mississippi now and I'm gonna go get me some mud bugs . Sounds good
Hahaha love it 😀
@@adventurewa3242 let me say, there ain't a place on earth that makes mud bugs like the folks in South Mississippi. Them was the best crawfish I've eaten to date . I could afford 2 # 4 hours ago and flavor still lingers in my nose . That's when you know there good . I'm still getting my money's worth .
@@adventurewa3242 God bless Austraila . God bless the United States . And God bless the whole world in Jesus name
from mississippi calling them mud bugs? wild
@@madisonn659 my father inlaw was from Texas. That's the lingo there . What do yall call them ?
Not bad for ur first time we New Mexican from north western part learn from Texan and other southern states how slightly different in ways but same how to cook because WE New Mexican live chili enjoy eating thee broils and yes u gotta keep in mind to soak them a bit longer best in a ice chest with ur water hide inside running slowly to clean them out til the moment to cook but to cook everything together and serve steamed hot please add my Southern compadres !!!! Once u get it down then serve to friend and then ENJOY their delightfulness but invest in the seasoning, slap your mama and other spicy seasonings out there from the United States because the southern southern states the spices and to see who amongst you can enjoy, but holding up from tearing up from the heat of the spices!!!!😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂
Cheers bud yea well my next boil up will be done the rite way hahaha I love it
Good Day Chief, them Marrin you spoke of are they like your Cold Creek Giant Crayfish or more like Lobster?
Hey mate they are a giant freshwater creek crayfish and super tasty if u check out my latest video u will see that they look like 👍
Dead. Dream of this in WA. Living the dream. Enjoy.
Yea bud next time they will be alive hahaha
Get some Louisiana Shrimp bowl for those crawfish.
Tony Chacheres wouldn’t hurt.
I'm on it mate got some getting sent over now can't wait 🤙
@@adventurewa3242 while you add it get some Italian sausage,pineapple,oranges,onions,whole heads of garlic(get way more than you think you need, it’s very good)lemons,Vienna sausage,asparagus,baby red potatoes(get way more than you think you need, it’s very good).
Y’all get those lobster sized crawdads.
“Suck da head and squeeze the tail.”

Due to drought.
Getting $10US/lb.boiled.
Nice Feed Mate !!
Cheers bud 🤙
Yabbies is a crawfish isn't? Or different type? I'm working in Japan and Japanese people they not eating that.. So you can get alot of them in the small river near ricefield.
Pritty much the same thing crawfish is American yabbies is Australia 🤙
@@adventurewa3242 in Japan, they are annoying pests. they live in abundance because no one eats them.
Wow, that was a good feed :)
It was mate it was sooo delicious 😋
Why are the crawfish dead when u put them in the pot? And u need to order some crab boil to cook them in im from Louisiana.
Yea mate I do I have ordered some crab boil. I didn't know you were supposed to keep them alive they had been on ice, but if u check out my last boil video I done things a bit different 🤙
Ok I will do that
In America there known as crawdads or crayfish/crawfish
Yea mate love them 🤙
we call them crayfish here in the usa there normally red in color here and big inch to 2 and a half inch for the big ones
Nice taste sooo good hey 🤙
Even the one's your keeping are small
Yea not many big ones in that dam unfortunately
Are yabbies different from a crawdad or is it just what you guys call them in the land down under? Either way it’s hard to beat a good crawdad boil lol.
Pritty much the same thing man. Yea that's what we call them here 🤙
Great video. Good to see you let the females with eggs and the little one go. Just for your info my friend, Yabbies are omnivores - they eat vege and meat matter.
Cheers bud 👍
They didn't make their way here to WA by themselves. They were imported by farmers for their dams and escaped during both flood and drought events. You're allowed to catch them in any public water, no size or bag limits, and you are encouraged to never put them back in wild water.
👍
@@adventurewa3242never put them back into the water. Huge risk to marron waters and dams! Read up on it on fish rec and fisheries. They classified as pest.
Better off taking them all given the amount in there. The dam will only produce small Yabbies if there’s too many
Yea.mate it needs it sure does 🤙
Crawfish is what I call them
Yabbies here in Australia mate 👌
you did good
Thanx bud 🤙
Yabbies? Crawfish? Craw dads? Mud bugs? Lol!
Sooo many different names 🤙
Back in the day abit of bacon between the toes and flick to the bank Haha like your way bait bombs
Hahaha I might have to give that one a go sounds fun lol
@@adventurewa3242 could be a annual community advent the great yabbie kick off hang on got to think of some rules
Lol that would.be a funny day 🤣
You don't use salt to rinse bath them to fully clean anything that still stuck on them
I don't normally but I will.be from.now on 🤙
@adventurewa3242 it'll clear all the mud/sand in there viens
Cheers bud 🤙
That's money doo..
Hahahaha love it mate
Put that on a cracka dooo
Looks like the Crayfish from here in southern U.S.
Sure is mate but there's so many different names in each country lol 🤙
I dont wanna be mean but you need to get some louisiann boil and a bigger fire and clean the crawfish with running water good first try though and i am not sure if they where dead when you put them in but they need to be live and a rolling boil
Na mate that's all cool I want advice so.next time I can master it cheers 🤙
it should be cooked together but honestly that was the only difference then what i do. those are almost as expensive as lobsters here.
🤙no worries.bud cheers
Where do get the bait bombs, they look cool
baitbomb.com.au/ rite here mate 👍
