Packing the Shrimp Pots | Port Protection

Ahoy there mate! It's absolutely flat calm and glassy out, so we have to seize the moment. Mother nature can squash you like a bug. The only thing you can really do is just put your boots on and see what's gonna happen once you get out there.

And there's only one way to see, and that's to get out in it. Hopefully, the outcome will be tasty spot prawns. My neighbor was gonna clean out his freezer, and I said if you've got any old salmon or anything hanging on the bottom of it, I would sure appreciate it.

Yeah, that's exactly what I was hoping for - a good stinky bit attracted to the bay. Shrimp swim into the pots, narrowing passageways trapping them inside. I don't get to a lot; it doesn't have good range. Charting here’s gotta go by experience and what people have told you in the past - little tips.

All the pots have bait in them. I'm really stuck; those things got really nice ham. Sooner these pots hit the bottom, the better chance we're gonna accumulate some shrimp for us.

All right, let's get this done! The shrimp are a funny critter. There are basically a few shrimp everywhere, but there's a sweet spot that you want to hit for the area that you're living in.

This area here is in the neighborhood of 40 fathoms; you want to be close to that depth. Hey, 48! Here's our ledge; this is where we want to be. We're on the shelf here in the water.

One of the reasons I live out here, first and foremost, I like making my own stuff. These shrimp pots are a prime example. There's really no feeling like it when you learn something new.

The ultimate goal in the operation is to figure out how to catch a shrimp, but the journey to reach that goal is equally as important.
