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

"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. |
