Because of Coaching Football and making another trip to Africa…as well as my buddy having some health issues, we only made 4 trips this year. Makes me a bit sad, but what can you do, right?
So, trip 1 was about 3 weeks into the year. Took my 14 yr old daughter and let her throw the net some. She did a great job with a 6-foot net. Caught some shrimp and had a great time. The 7 yr old went out with us on that trip also. Shrimp were slow but we got 'em and were headed back to the dock before dark.
Trips 2 through 4 were the same except trip 4 we killed them. I could have filled a 55 gallon drum with them. They came in heavy right at dark. We had a half cooler when the tide turned and when it turned at dark, 2 passes and 3 poles and we were done.
So, 4 trips, 4 coolers, some easier than others but overall was a great year. Met some great people…and had some great times. I still have shrimp from 2013 though so, we have plenty to eat through the year. In fact, I’m thinking about peeling some today.
