Friends, my debut novel, Bycatch, is coming out early 2022. The book features shrimp fishermen in Biloxi, Mississippi. To get you up to speed, I have posted this seven-minute video showing how a shrimp trawler makes its catch. The video was produced by the Southern Shrimp Alliance. See a turtle exclusion device (TED) and bycatch reduction device (BRD) in action. Watch YouTube Video
How a Shrimp Trawler Works – Video
The SS Alliance produced a good video. The SSA should have included video about the “try trawl” briefly shown in one diagram, and its purpose. All-in-all, a good video. Alex, Thanks for including it in your post.
Bycatch—sounds a bit mysterious.
Bycatch is mysterious so you will stay tuned.
Nice video. Definitely learned more about the boats!
Interesting video. It looks like very hard work!
I came across this short clip while researching for my book. Never have I actually shrimped but I have seen a lot of boats.
