RE:shrimp advice

The shrimp run is generally more prominent during the three days before and after a full moon due to strong tides, and while there are many different techniques and tactics used to recreationally target shrimp, along the coast of Florida, they are commonly harvested using a dip net and some sort of light source. Along the south Atlantic coast, the heaviest shrimp runs occur from late November through early May, with the dead of winter (December through February) prime time.    info from: ( http://floridasportfishing.com)
