Being southern, I like to think that’s still the rule rather than exception, but these true bayou Cajuns are a special breed. It’s in their nature to treat people with incredible old time hospitality, and there’s a genuineness about them. They tend to treat everyone the same, regardless of class or prosperity. You could be the CEO or the janitor, and you’re going to sit at the same table and eat the same incredible food. They are a hard working and independent people too, yes. I’ll tell you this though. Don’t go down there and disrespect them. There was a saying once, something along the lines of “you mess with the wrong Cajun in Baton Rouge, by the time you get to Lafayette, his friends are all waiting for you”.

​@melodymakermark AMEN to that! If Northern people come with respect and kindness and honesty they'll be treated in kind. But you come with an attitude or disrespect, especially if you disrespect a woman, you will get an ass whooping and might be left out in the swamp overnight for an attitude adjustment. 😂😂😂 They'll come get ya in the morning, but one night alone in the swamp will definitely humble you real quick. 😂

There nothing easy about commercial fishing. I don’t care what you’re catching. It is hard work but worth every minute of it. Awesome video.

I wanted to see the corn and red potatoes cooked - did i miss them? Main thing i enjoy on here are the LA accents! I could listen to Tara talk all day! Thanks for another great video, nice seeing her brother and family! 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

I was watching Peter Santenello's Louisiana miniseries thanks to you and Tara. They are fascinating to watch. I'm still absorbing all the history lessons from the folks on the shows...Those crawfish looked delicious. I remember at a time when they were sold at 30 cents a pound when bought at the dock back in the days. Thanks for the memories, Keith. It's so reminiscing.

Thank you so much for running the traps for mud-bugs.

Thanks for finally getting into crawfish, I mentioned to you a little while back about you all not making crawfish gumbo at that time you mentioned crawfish was to expensive, glad you hooked up with Tara’s brother, keep him as a beloved family member because To me gumbo is not gumbo without crawfish, my son here in middle Georgia orders live crawfish shipped to his house every year from Louisiana and what is left over I peel them and make gumbo or crawfish étouffée , and when I can’t find crawfish I buy it at Walmart, making sure it’s the frozen tail meat from Louisiana and not from China, for my gumbo, and when I travel to San Antonio Texas from Georgia My wife and I always stop at Louisiana markets on the way to pickup Cajun products along the way , also thanks for running your drone out into your area 👍👍😀🙏

Fascinating to see how crawfishing is done. I lived near Picayune, MS back in the 80's (20 min from Slidell). Used to go to Slidell Mall often. Bought Van Halen's 5150 cassette when it first came out, there! Then saw them live one of first tour stops in Biloxi. OOps I digress. Anyway, I learned to appreciate crawfish, catfish, Mardi Gras, and lots more during that time, but I never knew how they actually caught the mudbugs! Well...other than dipnetting ditches and the time of year when the crawfish crossed a main road, and people just pulled over to the side with bushels. Thanks for showing us all that (mad respect, Terry!) and how to cook them right. ---AND the all important secret sauce! Super cool.
