We're done Shrimping for 2011

Took out the family for our last day shrimping. There's one more day, but I can't take the day off on a Wednesday. We got to Twanoh at 5:15 and were the first ones there. We launched with eased and tied up at the mooring buoys. Not too long, our friends started to arrive and by the time we left the park we were 4 boats deep tied side by side.

The weather was perfect. Little wind and flat water. There didn't seem to be as many boats either. We set and retrieved our pots with ease. We dropped at the 270 ft depths. I need to remind myself to get more rope. I need 400 ft shots of rope to fish the deeper water. We were OK with our set up with the calm conditions. If the wind, water and tides were kicking up we wouldn't have enough rope. We managed to get our limits for 6 people.
