Harvesting crawfish is labor intensive and accounts for 60 to 80 percent of production costs. Crawfish are generally harvested 120 to 150 days per production season (November- June) in well-managed ponds. However, if there is a poor fall and winter crawfish recruitment, harvest may be restricted to March-May (60 to 90 days). In well-managed ponds about one-third of the crawfish are harvested from November-February, one third from March-April, and the remainder in May.
