I call them hard to catch (if you can't get out there)! Did anyone go shrimping tonight, and if so how did you do? I was supposed to go and finally get to try out my now "greenies", but alas, my fishing buddy didn't get his part together, and said it was too windy! I'm dying to know what I missed. Would have been in Edgewater, on a 17' polar that the engine won't stay running. That's it, I'm getting my own boat or new friends.

POLAR? WOO

You made me practically made me spit my coffee out...I LOVE it when you say what you mean girl! You missed 5 gallons by WishInIWasFishin last night by Edgewater ramp. You can go read the details, and give him a smooch, I am such a fan of Mike's.

I know the aggravation of depending on a partner to do their thing. When it comes to shrimping as long as the wind is NOT dead on from North, the wind is more of a nuisance. The shrimp don't care they run deep. If you have a frame net, you will do half your pull with that alone.

I am so sorry your friend could not make it happen, Mike is reporting that Edgewater still got jumbo's but not swarming...but he still got 30 pounds of delicious meat.

Go read Mike's report, and then go call your friend and CUSS EM' OUT!


I have a POLAR 17ft Saltwater Series.
