I shrimped Monday night with some guys that have camps near mine. They were complaining about the size--not many big ones in yet.
BTW, this was my first shrimp trip and it was pretty cool the amount of biomass they take out of the water.

This is all pretty fascinating to me. I guess we are all products of are environment.
I do all my shrimping on the St. Johns River, about 50 miles due south of Jacksonville. They come up the fresh water St. Johns to spawn. Our season doesn't start (when the shrimp start running) until mid July early August.
Just wondering if the Gulf Shrimp is a different species than what we have?
I quickly Googled Florida East Coast shrimp and October to June each year is when they say they make their run. I'm guessing that's in the ocean.
I've been shrimping for over 50 years in the river and I know they come in, in July & August.
Sorry to bother y'all with my musings. I understand it doesn't apply to the topic. It just got this ole boy to wondering.
