I'm heading down to Biloxi in a couple days. People have told me you can go to the docks and buy shrimp straight off the boats. What a good time of day to go and what kind of prices am I looking at paying.

We always buy from Fortes in Pass Christian.

Instead of just buying what one boat has, Jerry buys from all of them so there's always a real good selection. His prices are good.

Holy shite.

My Uncle runs a dock in Cocodrie.

21-25s normally run about $3
10-15s are about #3.50

The most ive ever seen is $5 and that was for big beautiful shrimp. I was happy to pay it.

Most of the time they are less than $5.
