Dock specifications

Live graded crawfish sacks

Every 30 to 35-pound mesh sack is harvested across Louisiana bayous, cleaned on mechanical shaker tables, and graded for verified tail yield before dock departure.

Sack categories

Sack tiers and yields

Field Run Premium

Direct basin harvest washed over shaker bars to eliminate field silt and undersized mudbugs. High-volume restaurant standard averaging sixteen to twenty-four count per pound.

Peeler & Value Run

Calibrated specifically for commercial kitchens, house étouffée stocks, and tail-meat peeling stations requiring consistent meat recovery per sack without select premiums.

Jumbo Select

Hand-culled top tier averaging fifteen count or fewer per pound. Built for high-volume boil master menus demanding maximum tail meat yield and visual presence in commercial pots.

Pond intake wash

Mechanical shaker table

Potable fresh rinse

Cold dwell chilling

Fresh harvest loads submerge into aerated circulating basin tanks immediately upon dock arrival to loosen pond mud and flush silt from live gills.

A continuous cold well-water bath provides a final clear rinse, delivering clean live mudbugs ready for direct commercial boil prep without kitchen prep delay.

Clean crawfish pack into breathable 32-pound mesh sacks and transfer into 38-degree holding coolers to induce dormancy for transit across Texas highways.

Crawfish travel across vibrating stainless steel bars under high-pressure spray, shedding vegetation, cracked carapaces, and sub-grade weights without bruising live shells.
