I want some very large shrimp to cook.
Can anyone tell me where the best place is here to purchase some really nice big shrimp down here?
The crappie are coming wife is coming down with some and the fish fryer!:D
Not really sure anymore.. Maybe send shadow a pm and he can help you out.
You can't fish with a hung line!
Donno about Lake Charles, but Rouse's Supermarket in Youngsville (South of Lafayette a bit) has contract shrimpers working for it - really fresh and really good prices (Say, 16/20 for $5 a pound or a bit less). It will take you between 1 1/2 and 2 hours one way to get there - they are on LA 92 between Youngsville and Milton (337-362-2814).
If you have the time and the inclination, it might be worth the effort.
Bon chance.

I need to find some place close to Lake Charles because of the hours I am working! Right now I have been buying my shrimp at Kroger! Heck I can do that at home!
