That Jellyfish was a Ctenophora/Comb Jelly; perhaps from the Beroid family. That fish with the big eyes was some species of Chimeara, probably a Spotted Ratfish. Super cool video!
The shrimp escape because the entrance holes need to be at an angle. The rubber snubbers should cross the pot between the metal hole rings at the bottom of each ring. That way the shrimp have to crawl up at an angle to try and get out. It also makes it easier for the shrimp to fall into the pot. You can also put your bait jar in the middle of the crossing snubbers so the shrimp are attracted to the center area of the pot.
I will try your suggestion on the rubber snubber next shrimping day, tnxs 😀.... my bait jar is on the middle base of the pot because if I hang it, it is all the video captures....
Looks like the shrimp are having a difficult time with the angle of your entrance holes…..maybe? Also, the reason most of them enter from one side is that is the current direction. They are following the scent trail.
Great video thanks for your work. By the way can you let us know where and when the footage was taken. I live in Sacramento California and just wondering where you took this footage. If it was Cali I might go prawning too.
Great video! Thanks!!!
Awesome video

Washington State Marine area 8-2
So you think the LED light prevents you from catching more? How so, please?
Great video!
if you make the entrances have a cone shape works way better
How deep do you need to go?
what camera is it
Thank you
Well well well
