The Crawfish were good but they could have been bigger. The girls invited friends and cousins over to eat. A Crawfish boil around south Louisiana is always time for a party....lol

Well what happened was, I hoped the fish had started biting in Old River but they hadn't. It's close to my camp and we are hoping to camp, fish and work on our camps, as soon as the fish start biting. When I realize the fish weren't going to co-operate, I call a friend and asked if we could go Crawfishing on his property. He said yes and the crawfishing was on. We caught 35# and quit, not to over do our privilege. I am sure, I'll owe him a favor or maybe he owes me one now.

We're back from fishing. We caught 1 Catfish and 1 sack of Crawfish. Fish just weren't biting well. Oh well. Boiled Crawfish for supper. I think they took a few pictures. I will post later.

A Knife Story: Last October I was in the swamp hunting and fishing. When I got back to my camp, I noticed I had lost my Swamp Knife. { A picture of it is on the main page of the Carbon Steel Group ] I went back in the swamp and searched very hard but I had no luck. I got some help and we went back, again no luck. I just couldn't figure out what happened to my Swamp Knife.

  It was handmade by Matt of ML Knives. Hammer forged 1095 with a Dessert Iron Wood Handle. It has a shoulder strap type sheath. There's no branch or sapling that could tell it no. I went where I wanted with my trusty ole Swamp Knife.

  Time passed and I figured I'd never see my old knife again. Then my Grand Daughters boyfriend talked to an old swamper friend of mine and he was telling him he had found a great knife. How well it cut and kept and edge. That's when Paul asked if it's stamped ML, that's ole Paw Paw's knife, he lost. He said yep, that must be Rob's Swamp Knife.

  To say I'm excited is to say the least. I haven't got it hand yet but it won't be long. Yahoo!
