Salty, Key Largo shrimping.. My parents wintered a
Post# of 5789
They moved to Cape Coral in the late 80's and just as well for shrimping, which they loved. Florida had a major 3 year drought and it dried up much of the shrimp breeding grounds in the everglades. I did hear it came back years later. I went down there for 2 weeks every winter and looked forward to the shrimping and ocean fishing. Caught a lot of Grouper and Yellow-tailed Snappers.ocean fishing After my folks moved, they set size limits and most of what we caught we would have had to through back under the new size limits. Loved catching grunts, and no size limitations there. Those were the days.. The video below I am quite sure is from the same spot we shrimped at as it was the only good spot from Blackwater Sound.
