shirmp trap net???
 

has any body tried to ctach a shirmp from a kayak. i saw a video online i just wondering if anybody know where to get the gear: IE; shrimp trap net and baits

You can get ghost shrimp out of the bays and lagoons but all you need is a shrimp pump and some waders or rain boots. They work well as live bait.

Here is an article how to build your own

Here you go if you want to purchase one, I think some of the local tackle stores have them too.

I was actually extremely fortunate enough to talk to Mr. Howard Mckim from Alaska at LJ shores the other day about exactly just that!!!He says thats probably one of the best tasting things he prepares from all the available goodies at his disposal....
Funny how that even happened..I launched at the shores at 4am the other day and found a fishing yak vest laying around ina pile of kelp at high tide and retuned in the afternoon to post later on BWE I found a vest, but when I landed this guy comes up to me and says his name is Howard and if I had seen a vest & how asked how the fishin' was..:reel:

( I think thats the video below your referring to?)

I have mistakenly gotten some in my bug hoopin trips!..u can use the various minnow traps also for them, Try to keep the openingrelatively small enough to discourage unwanted bigger guests.. What actually worked well for me in at least in Miami, was the addition of lights, it attracts them suckers like you wouldnt believe!..

That is interesting. Is he trapping Ghost Shrimp or are there other species of shrimp in our waters?

Howard is in Alaska and gets spot Prawns. It is a ton of work pulling those shrimp pots up put when it is full it is well worth it.

thats the video i was talking about i was wondering were you can get those type of net trap?

I have pulled up very small(1.5 inch or so)prawns while hooping.The tails are smaller than popcorn shrimp...

You little shrimp
