I have been out at least once the past 3 weeks deep holing. 2 weeks ago I caught about 1 quart of headed shrimp. Last week I caught 2 1/2 quarts. Went today and after searching several areas, I found them. Caught a 1/2 cooler of very nice size shrimp in 25-30 foot of water. By the time we found them, I was pretty well beat and we left with 30-60 counts coming up with each cast. It was all the searching cast earlier this morning with 0-5 per cast that wore me out.
Good job. Try using a smaller net til you find them. Then, switch to the big net. I throw a 7 ft. Then, get out the 10 footer once I verify it’s not jellys, and bait fish. I drove all over the bay for 3 shrimp Tuesday morning. It wont be long though.
