Shrimp....Native Shrimp !

Not to far off the coast dragger fishermen have changed their groundfish gear to go shrimp'n. While some of the fleet go after groundfish some changed over to save their quota of other species to target the shrimp.

  1. OMG! where can I buy this shrimp?! I'm always looking for locally caught, not grown in a mangrove swamp in Thailand, shrimp!

  2. Most local Seafood stores carry Northern Shrimp. Intershell Seafood on Commercial St. has it and I'm sure Steve Connelly's on E. Main St. has it.
