Why would he not be telling the truth. All you have to do is go look then make a remark. I think he is a truthful person myself.

well then the boat is loosing money selling them for that price. Jumbos for me would be in the 15 count range. I say that because 6-8's and 9-12's are not going for 250 a lb anywhere. I take bluffers side. But 50 lbs from cpl sounds pretty good. They probably have a limit. Sad

I have bought large bags of jumbo shrimp also from people right off the boat for a really cheap price compared to their value and usually the people selling it are deck hands so they can care less about the expense of the shrimp boat.

Speaking of deck hands.

I'm from SA so I don't get to drive by the shrimp boats there in CC 'cept sometimes when I hit the surf. Are those boats the actual ones that head out shrimping or are they always docked there and have the goodies offloaded onto their deck?

If I wanted to buy some shrimp and if I was close to the boats, I would get it there. If I was in Flour Bluff and some one had it for a dollar more per pound, I would buy it in the Bluff. To each their own, I always say.

I just picked up 5lbs. for 17.50. The shrimp aren't giant but for 3.50 its well worth it. They are comparable to the 6.99/lb you can get at heb size wise. Its a good deal if you plan on having shrimp anytime soon. Jason Slocum
