My grandfather gifted me one about the time I was 10, but then again he had ulterior motives. Wink


I've been throwing the idea of buying a pruse seine for pulling behind the boat, They run about $300 for the smaller ones. The license required is not something i've figured out yet, I think they are expensive.

I've made several over the years. Very simple and takes about 30 minutes to do.

Boards must not be larger than 450 square inches each.

"Legal shrimping operations" means the use of a legal trawl in places, at times, and in manners as authorized by TPWD (see Shrimp Regulations).

I haven't seen anybody push net in years. I used to push net on the base all the time in the early to mid 90's. We built ours out of PVC. I think we still have the frame laying around at my parents house.
