Shrimpers say at the start of last season the biggest shrimp were fetching $4 a pound. Now the local guys say for the same size shrimp they're only getting $.80 a pound.


Thats misleading.....the fisherman are getting paid .75-.80/lb from the docks......the docks and markets are charging anywhere from $3.00-$8.00/lb to the public....

Some boats cant sell to the public right off the boat because if they do, then the docks will cut them off and wont buy from them
