Mudbug season is upon us.

That’s right, South Mississippi — bars and restaurants are boiling up crawfish and offering platters with all of the fixings as we prepare for spring.

Last year, more than 300,000 people voted in Sun Herald’s inaugural crawfish bracket and chose Craw Daddy’s in Gulfport as the winner. This crawfish season, we’re shaking things up a little bit.

The Sun Herald wants to create a crawfish guide to serve as a tool for locals and tourists alike to have a centralized place to see which businesses are selling boiled crawfish.

You can add your favorites by taking our survey below. You can include restaurants, bars or any other business who offers boiled crawfish by the plate or by the pound.
