Got my tags. First year going at it with some gusto. Hopefully I wont find myself stranded in the bayâŚ
In celebration of 1 month -1 day I got a new net! I am going to try that bait binder this year so I donât have to deal with meal and clay mess.
I think some of us should go together and buy a case of those restaurant style plastic 2 quart containers for freezing them.

I bought a new freezer I have such high expectations. I better catch some or Iâll never hear the end of it at home.

Is your boatsâ name Jenny? ![]()
I have clearance from the boss man to take what time I need from work to go shrimping. I got my chest freezer cleaned out last week. Depending on deer season, I may need 2 freezers.
If I shoot a hog too, I will have the olâ South Carolina 3 meat treat freezer.

Hey DFreedom,
Ditto, Ditto on the new freezer and what needs to happens regarding quantity.
Yep, the pressure is on. Come on baby, daddy needs shrimp!!
Bonzo, never used Bait Binder any tricks to it. What size do ya make the balls, do ya put anything in it? Thanks
Local Boy, Just having fun.
the good thing about Bait Binder is there are no tricks at all to itâŚeverything you need is already in the can (well except for the water)âŚjust be careful you donât mix too much of it for that dayâs shrimpingâŚI make my balls about the size of a lime or lemon and flatten them so they donât roll around on the bottomâŚafter that nightâs batch is made up I dunk them in water then set out to dry for a few minutesâŚthis really sets them up to last a while in the waterâŚthe last few years I have used those red plastic Folgerâs coffee cans that hold 3lbs of coffeeâŚthat much Bait Binder is enough for about a trip and a half for me, but I take a whole canâs worth in case something happens or we have to moveâŚthose switching from meal/clay mix will have a really hard time trying to convince themselves that the small bait balls will catch as many shrimp as the planet-burger size balls of the mixâŚtrust me, they can and doâŚ
I donât care what kind of bait you use if the shrimp arenât there or you are not hitting your balls with the net, your catch will be greatly reducedâŚ
now, how to convince Bait Binder that they need to rename the product to âBonzoâs Bait Binderâ tee hee tee heeâŚ

bonzo; make up your mind are they the size of a lemon or are they the size of a lime? i am confused. ha ha. i saw baitbinder in sportsmanâs warehouse today for $11.99 5#. 24.99 12#. anywhere that i maybe can get it a little less?
That seems to be the going price for it. I was in West Marine getting oil the other day and they had a pallet of the big bag oâ bait binder. I got a bag and it was 23.99
Haddrells is supposed to get it at the end of the month. That is what they said when I picked up my new net.
I am excited. I have a friend that is letting me use his dock right on the ICW across from Bulls Bay. Its 5 mins to get in the bay. I am going up this weekend to tool around with him in the boat. Gonna mark a lot of stuff on the chart plotter.
