Don’t let me fool you. This shit comes in waves. We just had every contractor and repeat customer that could possibly have called us, called us all at once to line shit up in the 2 weeks before we head back to Florida. I generally don’t like to work more than 4-5 hours a day. It makes for a much healthier work life balance.

My wife and sons love that stuff, I do on occasion but I’m more of a coconut breaded guy

In Central America farmed shrimp is a big problem because they destroy the natural mangrove ecosystem to do it.

I’m sure that’s where we get ours, that’s why it’s sustainable HERE, lol

I guess there’s negatives to almost any farming truly, sad but true. But we gotta stop messing with ecosystems man, we’ll never learn

I do get to catch fresh shrimp during the summer when I go to the puget sound, but it is heavily regulated seasons. By far the best shrimp I have ever tasted though, sweet and tender🤤

Wow that pretty neat you can catch them during the summer. Here in miami it’s only winter time.
There sure aren’t any or many regulations here I know of for shrimp.

I’d love to angle for crawfish but the laws are murky.

Good morning @TopShelfTrees1 and crew! It’s going to be a beauty of a day today. I’m going to make the most of it too.
Call someone today that you care about and haven’t heard from for a while. Be that kind of friend. We all need one.

Are you talking about saltwater or freshwater crayfish ? I actually go out for crayfish often but for bait, if you ever want any let me know, we get buckets full no joke. I have a secret little creek we hit up twice a year

My wife and I were gathering up some MONSTER crayfish one day from the creek in the city park. This city woman walked by and said “I know what you two are doing. Your going fishing right?”. I looked up at her with a big crawdad in my hand and said “No mam. This is dinner”. She gave me such a look! It was somewhere between pity and disgust.
City folk… go figure. If she sat down to a dinner of breaded crawdad tails she would be knee deep in that creek the next day catching herself some dinner.

Bahaha ! Oh I’ve gotten looks of disgust over stuff like that so many times, I even had someone call the cops on me for rebuilding a rock/break wall above the falls that fell over but was there for 30 years at least and was one of two resting spots for the fish or they got swept over the falls next, now I can’t even fish there cuz someone calls the cops, everytime. Meanwhile I have pics of me on my grandpas shoulders outthere, and some of me in my tighty whities fishing the hole above. People are so quick to judge, we’re just doing what we love and comes natural, sadly our crayfish spot we often have to wait until dusk and everyone is settling in , cuz people come out and bitch when they see it, same with when I collect leopard frogs now, it’s like there’s always someone who complains .
