The 2021 Atchafalaya Basin crawfish season is off to an earlier start, while progress is being shown in the pond season.
The storm surge from hurricanes prompted the crawfish to appear, so while crawfish in the Atchafalaya Spillway would appear in late February or early March, they were being caught in December, according to Sidney Michel, owner of D&B Seafood in Morgan City.
