Brown Shrimp Catch Up, and a Few Whites

The brown shrimp catch was up for the McClellanville fleet last week.  Some boats were reporting three and four basket drags.  The price at the dock isn’t great, but its also not as bad as its been.  There have also been a few white shrimp starting to show up, which, given that it’s still July, is a bit early.  The captains are non-committal on what this might mean, but let’s hope it means a great fall white shrimp run!
