Get ready to pay more for shrimp.

Not me. The Jumbos are already out of my price range - $12.99 per pound.

Let's all take a moment to recall that the price of shrimp skyrocketed when the enviros pushed through a drag-net ban in florida.

That drag-net ban more than paid for itself, in increased stocks of sport fish.

I am still upset over that. Recently, I thought that since it has been ten years since the idiotic net ban amendment, we should be able to walk across Choctawhatchee bay on the backs of all the fish that should have come back. How long would it take the so-called missing fish to restore their numbers?
