Take a guess what this is!

Ok, let’s have some more fun, shall we?

Anybody care to guess?

    Crawfish Etouffee

     Pronounced a-too-fay, it doesn’t really matter how you say it, just as long as you cook some and try it out!   Crawfish really aren’t fish at all, as you well know, but rather they are arthropods.  Yep, you read that right.  From the same family as spiders and probably the reason some folks refer…

    Double Trouble!

    We wound our way up a curvy bayou, looking for fishy water, and around the second curve she spotted a fishy-looking current line running from the western bank across the middle of the bayou and around the curve. We drifted in, and not long after she slung her bright yellow popping cork, it disappeared below the surface.

    “F I S H O N!” Patti yelled with as much enthusiasm as a die-hard football fan screaming “TOUCHDOWN!”, and I was as happy for her as she was about reeling in that yellow-mouthed speckled trout.

    We continued to pull in fish every few minutes at that spot until boat traffic scattered the fish, making them too spotty to find. Trolling on up the bayou, we cast around a few points that looked like ideal spots for trout to be hanging out waiting for bait fish. However, none of those spots were as profitable as our first stop.

    Once we traveled to the end of my GPS bread crumb line and farther than I had ever explored before, we tested the waters. Nothing. We looked for cuts in the marsh, where the bait-filled water flowed into the bayou, carrying the unsuspecting bait to the bigger fish that awaited. We fished a couple of those spots without much luck.

  1. Have to disqualify myself from this one. I’ve got two myself. I hung one on the wall. I’ve also purchased this same item as a wedding gift for several fishermen and women.

    Yep, I coulda guesses that! I haven’t used this one yet, so tell me, does the cornbread come out looking like fish?

  2. That is a cast-iron cornbread pan, to make fishy cornbread! So kitschy! And so southern! I love it!

    Isn’t it just the cutest thing? My friend from Mississippi came down last week and gave it to me as a “camp warming” gift!

  3. BW your readers are just too smart to pull one over on!

    By the way, thanks for letting me stay at Camp Dularge this weekend. I enjoyed the visit and the fun! You’ll soon be booked up with fisher men and women! What fun!

    P.S. You might want to post a pic of that huge ‘gator we saw on our adventures for everyone to see.

    You are very welcome! It was great having you! I thought the pics would go along with the “joint” sister post we’re supposed to write???

  4. BW, the fish do come out shaped like a fish. Don’t expect to see all the details though. Just make sure to “season” that cast iron GOOD, even if it’s already pre-seasoned. When you fill the fish be careful not to over fill them. It’s much easier to remove the baked fish.
