trying to figure out what's wrong with these shrimp

ETA: He's selling them thawed. So, now how can I cook them without them turning into mealey mush?
bought shrimp from a shrimper (he came to the house). The shrimp don't have heads, are fresh looking, don't smell, but turn to total mush and are mealy when they're boiled. They are not over cooked.
Haven't fried them, so don't know who they'd do then.
Trying to figure out what's wrong with them. Could he be thawing them before selling? Bought a lot, so we froze them.

Sounds like a classic case of freeze/thaw, freeze/thaw, freeze/thaw.

Absolutely. If you are not smack dab in shrimp season, you have IQF shrimp that have been thawed. That sucks and is one of many reasons I try to buy fresh and eat fresh.

You sure this guy was a shrimper?

Shrimpers usually travel in boats instead of trucks. Next time look for one of those
