PWS Shrimp Hunts 2022

[Akirie]

For those who like to hunt shrimp in Prince William Sound (or set pots while hunting blackies) the annual pot restriction has been posted, but with a twist. Two pot limit until further out into PWS where a third is allowed.

We hang lights over the side of the boat at night and dip em as they swim by in the current - no traps necessary down here.

Anyone dip shrimp up there or is it all traps?

Pretty deep stuff there. Channel is about 12-20 ft max around here, fish/shrimp inshore intracoastal river.
