Grass Shrimp

Got group coming done to South Moon on the 17th and wondering if their are any grass shrimp to be had. we used to get them and catch them in Griffin when we went to Blue Heron Cove. Will be 16 of us At South Moon 17th to 21st come see me Danbo any the rest

River is warming up real good so they should be moving in or real close to getting shallow. I have not tried dipping any yet, been tipping with Berkley Maggots. Might have to put my net in the truck and stop my the park on way home and drag it through some weeds and see.

South Moon won't be the same!!!!!:Rofl

Southern Tackle usually carries Grass Shrimp -
Tavares

Found plenty at the public ramp.... 17-92 and I4...... Also plenty at Dalahousie, so I expect anywhere you find shoreline grass you'll find all you want..... Would never buy them... Some things are made to be free:Rofl

I don't always think about getting them prior to going fishing - spur of moment thing Mike.
You are correct - carry the ole - small holed net - should be able to get plenty in weeds by docks

thanks for all the posts. went to BP an got new net may be the trick to be the lead boat.
Good Fishing, early post as it just quit Storming here and no sleep.

South Moon fish camp is in Astor Fl, south of lake George. Blue Heron cove,was or is still a fish camp on the ocklawaha river off HWY 42, the tail waters of lake Griffin. I think Slab is on lake Griffin. across from Nelsons fish camp.
We went thar for over 10 years and had good times even caught a fish or three.

Blue Gill & Crackers

Thanks for the info. I live on the Harris Chain of lakes. hardly ever get anywhere else. Would like to but health issues keep popping up. Catch a bunch nd give us some pics.

Take care and hope to get some good pics

I was using the Skippers jigs tipped with grass shrimp to catch hybrids.
They loved the electric chicken moon jig
