Do you live near the sea? Aren't you tired of buying shrimp in the store for a lot of money? You can catch them yourself with very little time and effort. And money at the same time.

Steps

  1. 1 Buy a slip net. If you've never caught it before, go to youtube.com and see how it's done. Practice in your yard first. This will give you a better understanding of how to throw the net into the water.
  2. 2 Try to get hold of ebb and flow charts for your area. You will need to know when the tide is most convenient for catching shrimp. And it's better to catch her in the evening.
  3. 3 Get to the place where it will be convenient for you to cast the net. You can try doing this from the shore, from the pier, or from the dock, or straight from the boat. It is desirable that the depth is no more than the radius of your mesh.
  4. 4 Cast the net and let it sink to the bottom. When the weights reach the bottom, pull the net with the rope attached to it. While you are pulling the net, it will tighten, capturing the shrimp.
  5. 5 Get ready to get dirty. When you pull the net out of the water, remember that it will take with it mud and silt from the bottom of the sea. Pull it out quickly (but not too fast). Buy a wide container where you will fold the net.
  6. 6 Pull on the main cord to loosen the net and empty its contents into the bucket.
  7. 7 Place the caught shrimp in a cooler box with ice.
  8. 8 Continue casting the net until you have the right amount of shrimp or until your hands are tired.
  9. 9 A very simple and inexpensive way to catch shrimp is with a fine-netting net, with which you will need to walk along the pipes at the pier. Such pipes can usually be found in bays.
  10. 10 If all else fails, then you can try walking with a butterfly net along the piers or piers.
  11. 11 Note that you may be catching anything other than shrimp.

Tips

  • Before you cook the shrimp, you must peel it. Do this as soon as you get home. Although if they were in an ice box, then you can wait until morning.You have to rinse them in fresh water and cut off the heads.
  • It is better to catch shrimps at night, as they then swim closer to the surface of the water.
  • Shrimp love cool water.
  • Better to catch shrimp at low tide.

Warnings

  • If you pull out a shrimp with a dozen black eggs under its belly, then release it back into the water.
  • Be careful not to get pricked by the shrimp. Live shrimp may try to do this, but you can also injure yourself on the shell of a dead shrimp.
  • Some people are allergic to shrimp. And they may not even know about it. If after eating shrimp you have breathing problems, chest tightness, or red spots appear, then these will be allergy symptoms. Call an ambulance right away as this allergy can be life-threatening. And if you've ever been allergic to shrimp or seafood, then don't risk eating them again!

What do you need

  • Casting network.
  • Shoes you are not afraid to get dirty
  • Bucket or wide bowl
  • Ice box
  • Gloves (if you like)
