About Crawfish: Crawfish boils are a springtime tradition in Louisiana. Louisiana leads the nation, producing more than 90% of the domestic crop. More than 1,600 farmers produce crawfish in some 111,000 acres of ponds. More than 800 commercial fishermen harvest crawfish from natural wetlands, and cultivated farms, primarily in and around the Atchafalaya Basin. The combined annual yield ranges from 120 million to 150 million pounds. The total economic impact on the Louisiana economy exceeds $300 million annually, and more than 7,000 people depend directly or indirectly on the crawfish industry. This is a Big Deal. The people of Louisiana are sharing one of their most unique cultural events with Dallas and all proceeds benefit local High School Students.
