    He's right. They are salamander. Sometimes I use them to catch big catfish, but I have heard rednecks back in Tennessee calling crayfish mudpuppies too.

    The slang for crawfish in Louisiana is 'mud bugs'... Usually cost around $2.50 US a pound, cooked at King Richard's, just off Esplanade & Rampart in New Orleans... Potatoes & corn included... Go down into the French Quarter to a tourist place and you'll pay $7.50 a pound... Nothing like a mess of bugs and a Turbo Dog...

    Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

    You are a blithering idiot, same as KW.
    You have had an answer to that half dozen times since post # 24, and even a slopehead that travels on a Brit passport should be able to comprehend the meanings in that many answers by that many different people or his Brit Passport should be invalid.

    Or is it that your , most likely half brother Tiger, has made good on his US passport and you are still in BKK scamming for a few baht a day with a Brit PP,, is that whats wrong with your mind??

    ^You have not answered the question. You said you prefer to eat mudpuppy than the fish. As a mudpuppy is a salamander, then you must prefer to eat salamander than the fish.

    Yes, you are a fuckwit.

    Now go and eat some salamander salad.

    My name is blackgang and I pretend to know about shit, really I'm just a fuckwit who makes it all up and has no clue to what it is I'm talking about. From harvesting drinking water to eating salamander, from Nam to Mexico. I'm a clueless old fruit.

    Trivia, As of 2009, The Simpsons opening sequence has featured, on the back of a magazine which Marge is reading at the supermarket checkout, a made up advertisement for Absolut which reads 'Absolut Krusty'. The ad shows a picture of an Absolut shaped bottle with the hair of Krusty the Clown, a well-known character in the show.

    Wasn't that long ago, 1927 or so I believe, something to do with a gun fight or some such shit in eastern oregon high desert country.
    Something about being a well driller with his own rig, a cocksman, someone else wife, and a pistolero.
    Dad never talked about it much and my grandma never mentioned him at all.
    Seems like my kinda guy tho.

    Mr Blackgang when your grandpa was up and running he could not finde Absolut in the market.I use to take some shoths when we eating cray fish otherwis I prefere red wine a good Jacobs creek type shiras.
    And the last 5 years I have been working in Tehran Iran and here you can imagen how diffecult it is to find any alcohol and dangerus also if the police catch you they will cut your neck.
    Some US friends to me was unlucky three years back the police cath them with some beer can in a plastic bag and the police told them pay 10 000 usd or follow us to prison and the Iran prison are not any nice place so what to do they pay and learn never walk around with any drinks on the street in Tehran

    Yes, I know, but I do not require alcohol to make my life enjoyable, In fact I have not had a beer even for over 28 years,
    And I spent many years working in Iran, but the Shah was there at that time, In Iraq, Saudi, Bahrain and Kewait, and have traveled over most of the Far and Mid east.
    So not much is strange to me, except someone who seems to idolize and can not enjoy life without alcoholic beverages.
    That to me is a real shame, kind of like shooting speed or Heroin.

    It is just a hobby really, as no one wants to buy, some did buy a little but was mostly just forum talk and info for those that wanted to do some for themselves, as it is interesting to me to do it and I ate it and shared with friends as we did that kind of stuff when I was a kid and we lived on a ranch and made our own food.
    There are a few places that make sausage and cure hams and bacons here,, Don's is one such place but I do not have his info handy but would be glad to look it up for you if you are interested, I sold my smokhouse and sausage machines as my health is not up to snufff and it does take some time to do it and I just do not have the energy to maintain such vigilance anymore.
    Thanks for your interest.
    But if you post on here for info there are others doing it and I was always talking to someone about how to do it or for new methods and products.

    Damn, I am dumb. Ate a lot of crayfish as a youngster, but here in Thailand they are called prawns. I buy big ones here in the village for B250 per kilo.

    So is a prawn a crayfish? Tastes the same, looks the same, smells the same, cooks the same...
