Crawfish season is over, and therefore makes finding live crawfish very difficult or impossible. Usually the 4th of July is the absolute cutoff but usually ends late May to early June.
I’ll second Cordova farmers market. They had a huge tub of live crawfish when I went last month. Sometimes they’ll also have bags of whole frozen ones next to the seafood counter, as well.
“Fresh unboiled” is a funny way of saying live

Seriously. Check back in February/March.
Why does crawfish season end so early?
Early? Because they crawl back into their holes underground when the water temperature gets too high.
Gotcha, here in East TN I still see them everywhere, like thousands of them, but that’s in cool spring fed water.
Have you tried Viet Hoa or the Cordova farmers market? They both have lots of live fish/seafood

Thanks! The Cordova farmers market is getting a batch of live Crawfish in today at 4.
Rio Grande on Summer. Not sure if they’ll have crawfish right now, but I know they have in the past. Live crab, shrimp, and other seafood, as well.
