Checked DNR regs today, “keep limits” go from the 48 Qts to 144 shrimp on 16 Dec. (no time of day listed on the web site) Just an FYI, Not sure i will get out this weekend. Hopefully w/ rain and cold someone will find some large shrimp hanging out. Would love to see reports this weekend if anyone goes. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all. Time to focus on fishing and maybe some time at Marrington on the mountain bike.
I found these in the freezer last night.
I have determined it is much less of a hassle just to go buy a 50 lb box every now and then from Carolina Seafood in McClellanville.

Sprinkle flour over vegetables; cook, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes or until flour begins to brown. Add shrimp and shrimp stock. Cook, stirring constantly, 2 to 3 minutes or until shrimp turns pink and gravy is smooth. Add water or additional stock if gravy is too thick. Serve immediately over good quality grits, stone ground or yellow if available.
