Lead line and cork line is what the top and bottom llines on a trawl is what they are called.

Only true shrimpers laughed when he said “that looks like a good day on the water” haha😂 a good day is railing to railing to the winch that’s a good day. 180 200 baskets across the deck every drag will make a trawler smile

ME AND MY DAD

How long does one Tow take? What is minimum crew? Is it only on daytime work, i thought song said "go to sea on the evening tide"?

I want to fish a blue whale 🐋

Great examples of some clean pulls. If they didn't catch 5 times as many fish as they did shrimp here in NC I wouldn't have an issue with them at all.

The Bubba Gump shrimp corporation. We got more money than Davey Crockett 😂

I want to thank all shrimpers out there. Im gonna go eat a bag of shrimps now.

Oh shit

Excellent educational video! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Good video but you gave wrong impression of how they worked long hours. All the time when the boat was trawling, they had downtime. Only when the shrimp was brought in, did they work separating the shrimp. That was not hard work. Yes their hours were not normal but they worked when shrimp was pulled into the boat. They got used to those hours but you were not and it messed up your sleep. The workers were not overworked like you portrayed.

:-)

Those biggie's never make it to my store!

It's a little different in the bay. It's a pretty good video.

We enjoyed your video as we are watching a shrimper off Daytona Beach Shores.

Awesome vid, thanks!

Great video! I learned something. Thanks.

Those fish excluders work. We had a set of nets with fish excluders on the boat I worked on. People don’t use them because they think they are losing shrimp from the hole in the net. I opened the fish excluder on one side, and left the other side closed. Both nets caught the same amount of shrimp.

👍有知识掌握捕鱼虾的技术

These kind of trawlers have fascinated me for years. Captain Reggie Sawyer of Darien, GA was a great help in making my companies shrimp boat model kits more authentic and fun to build!

The good old days of unlimited hauls....

it will cause a nuclear war in TNO

anybody realize how destructive shrimping is to the ocean? They kill tons of marine life for every 10 shrimp they catch. They haul up the net and dump the dead drowned turtles overboard, which are quickly buried by fish and game before the tourists wake up, and then the shrimpers leave a ten foot pile of heaving protoplasm to suffocate on the deck. When EVERYTHING is dead and I do mean EVERYTHING, they shovel it all back into the sea while picking out the dozen or so shrimp to put them in a bucket. Then the do it again, and all within a mile of shore, where it is illegal.

I've seen the weirdest s*** ever come out of a shrimp net when I was kid I saw this shark camouflage stingray looking thing came out of there and his son of a b**** shocked me I guess it's called a skate. Oh and all the mean ass blue crabs

Nice Video!( I was born in the 1950's rural. The Texas Coast once had Croatian Immigrants with their beautiful wood, brightly painted like Ionian Sea Fishing Boats, all over the place. I assume those Boats are in Museums now.)( P.S. The Chinese that settled in Louisiana, after assisting in the building of the Transcontinental Railway Systems built Villages of Houses on Stilts over Louisiana's Lake Pontchartrain. They started the Shrimp Industry. European Cultures had supposedly not eaten them before.

This is a great video. I was a key west shrimper from 77 to 83. I still wear two earings..like we did then.

How much does a used shrimp boat cost?

Gostei de ver em Portugal todo o Camarão que se consome vem do estrangeiro antigamente pescava-se no Rio Tejo e era barcos a remos e colhia-se pouca quantidade e era negro hoje não se encontra em nenhum lado dava-se o nome de camarão Mouro

Thank you shrimp alliance, I enjoyed this educational content thouroughly, shrimp!

Where can I fine the company that make these caler net????

Where I can find these net to buy

Thanks for this informative glimpse into shrimp harvesting. I’ll savor my next meal of shrimp even more.

you put diesel, start it up and go. thats how a shrimp boat works

I am a Commericial shrimp boat deckhand out of Galveston, Texas. I wanted to thank you for providing a quality video that I was able to share with my viewers of my Facebook page. They thoroughly enjoyed learning about how our boat operates. Take care and I hope you’ll do more.

Good video! I always wondered how the nets worked etc, We have a retired fishing vessel that was converted into a pleasure cruiser and I love seeing how the components that still exist on the vessel fit in with the process. We sleep in what was once the "fish tank" and found shrimp fishing areas marked on the old charts, but it was made by a company since not operational so I crave weird information about how the boat worked.

Watching shrimp boats right now on coast of North Myrtle Beach. They docked right in front of our condo last night. #daddy's boy

I was eating shrimps, wondering how the fishermen caught these tiny little creatures

I hope the guy lottery managed to buy a shrimp boat.

Well, I figured the comments would have something to do with Bubba Gump shrimp. Of course, I was correct.

Informative. Well delivered. Thank you for sharing the video clip. God bless.

Trawling is evil as fuck

I work on a shrimp boat in SC. Best fucking job I’ve ever had. Nothing like seeing that sunrise in the morning.

this looks ignurt

Prawns.

That's called Texas. Ringing Hear in Florida most use trawls made of steal with roller's on the bottom and rake tines in front of the net and we use a picking table easier on the back or but

Looks like rapping the sea

Very good info and now I know about how a Shrimp Boat operates!! Well Explained Sir and I do wanna Thank you Much !!

I went shrimping back in 2003 and it must have been before the times of by-catch reduction devices, because we half the catch was usually fish, rays, sharks, and every other type of seafood imaginable (even conch shells with live conch inside). I spent the first 10 minutes desperately trying to save all the fish's lives that we wouldn't eat. That changed me, and I promised to learn and help the situation because that wasn't right. Now I'm a fisheries biologist lol

I just want to wrap around you and fall in love. Sincerely, Bacon
