Great vid. I was born and raised on shrimp boats so this brings back a lot of memories.

As a teenager I worked on the double rigger Nancy Jane out of Dulac LA. Learning to pilot operate LORAN NAVIGATION AND RADAR AND CLEANED NETS AND PICKED SHRIMP. IT WAS AMAZING SLEEPING UNDER THE STARS!!!

How fast are they going when the net is deployed?

2-4 knots is ideal

I’m curious as to the current state of the shrimp industry is in now. Years ago around 73 - 80 I shrimped off and on with my cousin who owned a shrimp boat. It was tough then and dying out

Not great. Most boats come in and have to sell shrimp for .50 to .80 cents a pound.

Wild caught shrimp is so much better than that farm raised crap

@brucelunsford5859 5 жыл бұрын

Misleading video to say the least. Nationwide, the bycatch is 85%. In other words, 85% of what is caught is juvenile grouper, gamefish, baitfish, etc.

@rhon ahid No Its not, your very uneducated on the subject. you cant drag a bottom trawl over rough bottoms it has to be smooth or it hangs up. that should be common sense.

Nobody’s out there dragging there nets across coral reefs lol that’ll instantly fuck your net up

Not really. Not at all actually. They’re screwed if they hit coral, rocks, reefs, wrecks, whales and other big objects. They’re as risk averse as any other smart business, so you’re only freaking out at an imagined concept, due to your own lack of knowledge in this area. They don’t want to hit stuff and they don’t have the equipment to trawl over a reef and it isn’t where the big catches of fish and shrimp are. Sure, the bigger metal industrial trawl doors have done damage here and there but it’s a big loss to them when something hits hard. The sea is very transactional that way. Mess with it, it’ll mess with you. So they’re careful and they tread lightly. Anyone that doesn’t is kept out of the business by virtue of repeatedly kept off the water because they’re breaking their towed equipment. So, take a deep breath bud :) they have this quite well figured out. Enjoy some seafood tonight and thank them later.

Now wheres the big loss?, On the nature/reef or on the human interaction?, I don't care of what kind of fishing style they are using all I care is that before they invade that reef that is as healthy as it can be. I also go on fishing but not that way. That is overkilling the marine lives. Maybe, someday all of the marine biology/life will be just found on the pages of the books that even our grandchildren will never recognize even a pufferfish in reality. Now, who's uneducated one here?
