There is a far better way. But you gotta remember... these are Vietnamese shrimpers fishing the TX Gulf. When they arrived in the 70s to settle along the TX Gulf Coast, their shrimping methods depleted the Gulf Shrimp population b/c they took everything, big, medium, small & tiny shrimp. It led to fights and even shooting the Vietnamese out of many coastal shrimping communities. Don't believe me? Just go to any TX Gulf Coast jetty and watch the Vietnamese who fish there. They keep everything, some of it illegal but most are unregulated fishes. It's how they are... absolutely no concept of sustainability or conservation.

An angled plywood chute to the hole in the transom or maybe a constant raw water wash down to keep them moving towards the back of the boat. It's a shame to just throw them on the deck and waste them
Has to be a better way to handle by catch
