"We call em crawdads"

When I was a kid we called them crawfish. In my mind there was a "L" in there: crawlfish. We had millions of them in the creeks around my area. One day a guy drained his private club swimming pool into one of the main creeks. Within a few hours there were dead crawfish and tadpoles all over the place. The a-----e is dead now.

Yep, I grew up in Indiana and that is what we called them.

Crawdads sure are yummy too. Boil them in water and dip the tails and claws into melted butter. Mmmmm Mmmmm.
