There nothing like fresh shrimp. Easy to clean. Have a nice day Y’all.
I love living in Jacksonville for this perk and the salt water fishing
The RedFish and Flounder bite is really about to turn on
41 years ago when we got married my husband was a water management engineer for the Saint John River. He got on the river but I never did. Great to finally see it. We got married and lived in Palatka. We loved our time there. Great video!
Shrimp are doing really good down on Palatka right now also, but they are bigger the more north you go. I rather get less numbers but better size. This area is close to home also. Thanks for watching.
That was fun to watch!
I remember as a teenager back in the early 80’s going out at night to the end of the longest dock about 5 down from the buckman on the east side and cast netting shrimp. We’d put a chum bucket out in the late afternoon and just net from about 9 to midnight. Good memories!!!
I grew up doing that from the old Shands Bridge. Good times because we would cook them up on the camp stove right on the old bridge.
I appreciate your word’s about dock shrimping. Dad taught me how to shrimp off our dock in Orange Park. We did just what you described. It was seasonal, or that’s what we thought - usually mid August to lateSeptember, and in the evenings only. The net taping is something we never heard of.
I love the mixture of content here. The wife and I are looking for a second home on the gulf coast so that we have an escape from Wyoming winters after we retire. I’m looking very hard at Florida, thanks to the wonderful outdoors content you share.
I was stationed at NAS Jacksonville in 1970 for Navy school , and use to fish on a fork of the St. John's river that went through the base, every weekend.........great fishing on that river (brackish water, but who cared)..............miss the fishing in Florida, a wonderland of great species.................
Fresh shrimp can't be beat..... All fresh caught seafood is great....
So I feel like a real idiot. I showed my husband the video and said " I never saw the river" and he looked at me weird and said "We lived on River Street and the river was just across the road from our apartment!" Well, in my defense it was 40 years ago!
Funny story. Thanks for sharing.
I am so jealous, I wish we had this fresh of shrimp up here ! Happy fishing Scott !
You mix it up a little about shrimps, they don't spawn in a river they feed in it and move out in Atlantic ocean to spawn and return to tributaries to feed
Great view!
Nice vid!
Awesome video. I love fishing the st John's. 🤙
I too put a weight in my mouth to throw a cast net. People gonna hate.
Gives you a little preview taste of what your gonna be eating later is what my Grandma used to say.
Have you had any luck with crabbing this year? I've been trying tomoka a lot with very little luck
This is great. I'm considering a move to the SJR area. I knew the fishing and crabbing were good, but didn't know there was shrimping, too.
Hey Shane. An annual event here. Some years better than others. I hard work, but can be fun when they are running.
Hey, I tried letting people know in live chat that you couldn't access the link, because subscription feed says you're still waiting to go live. (Because it's totally broken these days.) I let them know you already did the stream, Some people were still hanging around waiting. Nice spin on that net throw btw. 👍 Sweet catch.
Hello, thank you for the video.
I'm in debary near the st. John's.
I don't think shrimp are this far south? What city was this filmed? I would like to come up and try this.
Great video.
I also used to throw the heads away until my mother in law boiled em and made stock for pasta/ shrimp marinara
what part of the st johns was that and how long does it last until the shrimp leave
Great video!
Omg , mending nets, I'm ready to slay em
Hello sir, How are you?
Do i look for a grass bottom. And about how deep
Sand bottom near drop offs. I start around 9-10 feet and work my way deeper until I figure out what depth they are using. The other day they were thick in 20 feet but it was to hard to get your net all the way to the bottom due to current.
Have you started catching them yet in st.johns I like going all over from Palatka to green cove
They are starting up right now. You have to be in just the right spot to get any. Most of the ledges have some decent size ones. Just posted a new video on shrimping.
What area is best for shrimp in April/ May? I’ll mostly be using them for bait. Shore and dock, no boat yet
Here, the season is closed for May. June. July because the adult shrimp are coming into the river to spawn. Other areas will have different regs. The big ones are out there but we can't harvest.
@@BackwoodsGourmetChannel I’m a commercial fisherman…so I don’t think that applies, so correct me if I’m wrong; anyway just trying to cut some expenses of having to buy shrimp everyday
Any good info about migration patterns in 2021 will be rewarded
Do you need a license to catch shrimp on the St. John’s River?
You will need a Florida saltwater license.
