Live Shrimp around Bald Point

Post by mojokoko »

Hey guys, it seems a big truck broke that gives live shrimp to a lot
of the bait stores around there so they dont have any live shrimp. It has been like this the past 2 weekends. I was wondering if anyone knew where
I could find some "live" shrimp on my way to Bald Point?

I mainly tip a jig with them, but have used them om a top water also :-D when tipping I use about 1/3 of a peice per tip or just cut a small peice off of a sheet :wink: :thumbup: They have NO smell to us, but the fish love it :beer: :beer: The Crab flavor is killer for Reds 8)

The BP station in Panacea at the bridge also has shrimp, and incredible chocolate cake. I prefer to shop with Scott, but ya gotta have options.

Well........ if you can find the "skoal" flavored ...just put a piece between your cheek and gum... If you have some that have dried out.... cut em into circles and make drag washers out of em :-D

Well, heaven with stingrays but, yes, heaven, even for a "challenged" net thrower like me.

And I've caught reds, trout, snot cats, rays, and black drum from the shore. I've had most luck with high water and an early morning or late day moving tide.

That being said, I've also been skunked about half the times I've been out there. That's why I started bringing the cast net.
