What a perfect beautiful day you had two years ago. Gorgeous shrimp. Thanks for taking us along.
Our pleasure! It sure was an awesome day & an enormous bounty we were blessed with! 🤗🦐
Love me grandma squeals and laughs of pleasure! He is having a blast!!!
We have a blast together.
Catching up, as time permits, and enjoying all of your videos! Even the ones with Oliver in them! Just kidding!! 😂 😂. Watching these videos make this broken down old fat man hangry!! 😂
LOL 😆 I'll video Stephanie more. She'll love that.😉
@@SaltyReflections 😂😂
Awesome, great day to be on the water. You are blessed by God to experience this lifestyle.
Yes we are! We thank God everyday for giving us the ability to be able to enjoy the things we love.
Funny; Looks like they catch as many shrimp with THIS boat (using less fuel) then the "Parker" with a larger net. Dollar for dollar, looks like THIS is the way to go... especially with a smaller crew of people.
I can't complain about the amount of shrimp we caught using this smaller boat powered by the Yamaha 90 4 stroke pulling our 25' net. The Parker's 5.7 Mercruiser pulls the bigger 40' net just as cheap as this one. It doesn't need to turn as many rpms to pull the net. It was hard for me to believe it was burning around the same amount of fuel. The Parker sucks down way more fuel on plane than this one. It only gets around 2 mpg on plane, and this 17' Sea Hunt gets around 5.5 mpg. The 25' Parker is three times as heavy as the 17" Sea Hunt. .
SWEET!!!! WHAT A FIRST HAUL! AINT NUTTIN LIKE TRAWLIN WITH A BIG BALL OF STOKERS MINT!! HAHAH!
You got that right. The struggle is real.
Thanks for another great video, Oliver, of our Salty Reflections! We had a great time shrimping with LeGrande! & we definitely wrecked 'em! 💙🌊🦐
Thanks Steph! I sure was happy that everything went well on this trip.
This looks like so much fun! Love seeing the dolphins up close.
Shrimping is fun but it is a lot of work too! Yeah the dolphins are AWESOME!!
That's what I call a shrimp haul! I could have watched you throwing fish to the birds and dolphins all day. What a blessing to give a friend a good time. Your favorite shelling Saltaholic says God paid you back "pressed down and overflowing"!
You got that right! We had tons of fun and thankful everything turned out great!
Great video.... loved the dolphins and how you share your experiences with others!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the comment and watching!
Nice haul! You guys got it goin on! Thanks for the ride👍
Thanks for going shrimping with us. Stay safe and God bless!
Oh my goodness. For real. I actually smelled the shrimp for just a second I was so involved and excited. For real as Oliver says shrimp scampi,shrimp cocktail, shrimp friend rice. Thank you!!!!!
😋😊 Right! & don't those sound & smell delicious! 😋😃 Thank you for your comment & for watching! 💙🌊🦐🍤
@@SaltyReflections 9yra
Love it I oyea
Wow, guys that’s a nice haul. Just so amazing to this hillbilly how the dolphins come up to the boat. Oh yea oh yea I. Hold hear the excitement of Oliver looking at all those delicious things. Good fishing and gods speed to SALTY REFLECTIONS AND FAMILY. 👍🇺🇸🐬🦐
Joel, I was excited, Legrande was excited and Stephanie was excited when we saw our catch. Thank God! We had a great day.
Really enjoyed watching you all shrimp and watching the dolphins up close and the sea gulls
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for the comment and watching!
Thanks for a great video.. you guys are so much fun. Shrimp by the 100’s. Good haul.❤️🙏🏻
Thanks! This was one of our good days of shrimping. Lagrande brought us good luck.
Love your videos!!! So relaxing to watch!🐠
Thank you so much! You all make us feel great.
Very enjoyable thank you !
Thank you too!
Awesome video! Quite possibly my favorite one so far. God bless y'all from Upstate S.C.
Thanks brother! This is definitely one of our favorites. Loved the excitement of LaGrande when he seen all of our catch. We were blessed to have him aboard.
I really enjoyed this video. I am not a fisher person. But I LOVE shrimp. I learned new things tonight. I always wondered how non-commercial shrimpers caught the shrimp. It was very interesting, informative and was a lot of fun to watch.
I think LeGrand had such a good time, he will be excited to go again. Thank you very much for sharing with us. Blessings
This is commercial shrimping. We have to have a commercial license to pull a trawl net in SC. There are a couple of different shrimping methods used that are non-commercial here.(bait shrimping and deep holing) Yes, Legrande had a great time and he's been steady asking about going back. We haven't been back yet but he did get to go with some of our good friends this past weekend. They wrecked them.
Lol great video. Made my day
Thank you son! Glade you liked the video. Love y'all!
Great video. I love that part of the country and got to enjoy some vacation time at Parris Island. Thank you for sharing. PB
Our pleasure! It is a beautiful place to enjoy nature. Thanks for joining us!
Love this video seeing all the wildlife of the ocean.
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed.
You guy's have it going on and hope more luck the rest on the season 🙏 !!
Thanks
I love watching your videos! Keep up the great work!
Thank you! Will do!
Wow! Love your videos. I was born in Charleston but moved to Florida when I was 6 months old. Rarely been back. Did fish by a railroad trestle in Beaufort with a cousin when little. Thank y’all so much
Thank you! Glad you like the videos. I know a couple of different spots where people fish around trestles here. One is in the Whale Branch area and one where the railroad crossed the Broad River. Hope you're enjoying Florida!
Great haul Love watching ya’ll
Thanks for watching! We appreciate it!
Beautiful picture thanks for sharing 👍 😊 😀
Thanks for watching!
Quite a haul. Enjoy. Thanks for letting us watch. Good job. Just keep on keeping on.
Thank you! We'll do our best to keep the videos coming.
Thank you! We'll do our best to keep the videos coming.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
How fantastic! My first time ever, shrimping with Salty Reflections and LeGrande. This has sure made me smile. It's a gorgeous sunny day here in Gippsland so it's easy for me to imagine being in South Carolina with you all.
I love shrimp and can't wait to see what you do with them. So many! It's definitely hard work, but the reward of all those shrimp and fish. Plus feeding the birds and the dolphins - so close to the boat - unbelievable!!
Sadly, I am unwell again today, so in bed just resting, but being with you shrimping has so cheered me up! Thanks again for all your hard work - on the boat and editing these fantastic videos.
Prawn cocktails here we come! Yummo! Lol! As always, take care; God bless; and keep safe, with lots of love from your friend Down Under, Sharon in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. xo xo.
I'm so glad you're enjoying our videos! Hope you get to feeling better. Ever time Legrande sees us he asks us about going back shrimping. We can't wait to get back out shrimping with others. Thanks for coming along on another video with us!
Awesome guys!! Love it!
Thanks!
Another great video. Really did miss our 2020 trip to that area last year. Hoping to be back in that area at the end of this year and go over the new bridge.
Thanks for taking the time to comment and thanks so much for watching! The views from the top of the new Harbor River Bridge are breath taking. It's definitely a big improvement. That old bridge was to narrow and in bad shape.
Feeding the by catch looks like a lot of fun. I hope one day you can see the sticker on my truck. Great ending Oliver, said like a true gentleman. Feeding frenzy there at the end, loved it guys thanks again.
Thank you sir! I never know what I'm going to say during these videos. I'm just trying to share as much as I can with others that like the things we love. Stay safe and God bless!
@@SaltyReflections yes sir, didn’t mean it any way but good. Sounds like me when I get my favorite foods in front of me. Appreciate you guys sharing all the videos and great stuff you post. My best to you all and your family’s. Enjoy those beautiful shrimp 🍤 🍤🍤🍤
Well good friend I miss not seeing you maybe we can go shrimping soon and I'll take everything for the boat ..
...
Great haul and a beautiful site seeing the Dolphins come up that close
Glad you enjoyed! The Dolphin are awesome to see while we're trawling.
Wow thank God for y'all can't wait to
Thank God for y'all can't wait to go congratulations
Anytime you get ready to come, come on. Thanks for the comment and watching! Always help others even if you know they can't help you back.
LeGrande has just the best smile! Definitely your good luck charm.
For sure!
Great video..thank you !
Cheers from Alaska !
Thanks. We appreciate it.
Awesome catch! 👍
Thanks. We had a great time together.
What a great haul that’ll be enjoyed by many! The best shrimp in the world! Thanks for taking us along on the adventure. Peace ~•~
Thank you! Yes, we ended up with good haul of shrimp and they got spread out in our community. We were glad that others took them off our hands.
Hi, I live in S.C. I am really interested in doing this. I've learned a lot from watching your videos and hopefully I can meet you guys one day in order to learn how to do it. You guys really sound like a loving and God fearing folks. I'm trying to get my family to do this with me but I want to try for myself first. I can hear the Southern charm and Christianity in your voice. I really want your wife and you to teach me something new besides just binge watching your video.
👋 Hey there, fellow South Cacalacky neighbor! We're just amateurs ourselves. 😄 Good luck & be safe out there!
Thank you sir for your great videos. You are truly blessed to live where you do and enjoy God’s creations but your real blessing is having a wife who shares your passion for what you do. Living in New York my season is over and my boat is on the hard until next spring.
Thank you! Yessir you're right, I'm very blessed and thankful for my blessings.
Love the video man. Shrimping is in my blood too
Thanks for coming along for the trip! 🦐
I'm in awww, love it!!
Thanks!
Nice Catch!
Thanks!
Looks like you made a fisherman for life out of lagrande. That's awesome. may the lord bless and multiply your channel .
Oh yeah! He loves being out on the water as much as anyone we know! 💯💙🌊🎣🦀🦐 Thanks for joining us for some shrimping! 🦐🦐 We appreciate it! & Thank you for your well wishes! 🙏
I fish commercially in Maine. We fish on a larger scale but it is so much fun watching you and your beautiful wife enjoying a day on the water. Keep up the great videos.
Awesome! We sure enjoy it! We love being on the water so its a good hobby for us! We appreciate any poinyers from a pro! 😁👍Hope you are having a great season & catching lots of shrimpies! 🦐🦐🦐🦐🦐🦐🦐🦐
Loved the dolphins!!
They're awesome to see while we're on the water around Beaufort.
Kudos to the way your wife just grabbed that Ray ! You are a great team! Stay safe!
Thanks for coming along with us!
I started watching for the shelling but I enjoy the shrimping crabing fishing anything you guys are doing your my kind of people that's why I continue to be a catholic lol thanks for the boat trip
Thank you!

Dayyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuummmm yall caught a million shrimp wow. much love from NewYork!!
Whoo hoo! 🎉 It was AWESOME - it was & still is our best catch ever! 🤗 Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it!
I really miss trawling with my Dad. Lost him in 1983, oh how l miss him. Thanks for the sweet memories!!! Love your videos. I would love to get a free sticker and I'll visit your shop to get a 3X T-shirt.. From New Orleans Westbank... Good luck next time out. Love how your wife seems to love trawling like l do.
Aww, glad we could bring back some sweet "Salty Reflections" 💭🌊🥰 of your own! We love to hear people's stories! 🤗 & yes ma'am, I 🙋🏼♀️ do love 💙😋🦐 shrimp trawling too! 🥰🐬🌅🙌 One of my very favorite foods! It's actually what we are doing this very moment! 😁 No joke, right now! 🤪🤗 & we are actually catching a decent amount today (not quite as good as this day from this video though 😲🤩👊), unlike yesterday when we didn't catch any - 🚫👎 nothing but jellies 🦑🥴🐙🙄😖! But it goes that way sometimes, right ✅️ 🤷🏼♀️ & the good Lord 🙏🙌 allowed us to wake up at 5 am this morning & try it again! So we are blessed! Thanks for watching & supporting from New Orleans. 🦐💙🌊🐬
Awesome job guys, We sat down and watched this on the big screen in the RV and enjoyed every moment... I'm going to have to get a sticker to put on the Motorhome to advertise you when we're camping on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay in VA.. We are headed to Cape Charles in a few weeks... Still hooked on crabs.
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, a Salty Reflections sticker would look great on that beauty. Thanks for the comment and watching!
Email us your address & we'll be glad to send you a sticker! 👍😁
@@SaltyReflections Will do and thank you, I would also like to also send you some items including a sticker..
My man Grant bringing the good luck and the heavy deck hands.
A blessing to have him on board. Appreciate you taking the time to comment and watching!
Awesome video 👊🤘
Glad you enjoyed. Thank you so much!👍
Excellent stuff bro
Thanks!
That was fun!
Thanks so much! We had a blast.
Nice catch.
Thanks
Great video would love to see more of how your trawl net is set up looking to do this myself
Sure we will try. Thanks for joining us!
Hello Oliver, Steph & LaGrange! I ran into your channel this mornin and when I saw Beaufort South Caroilina on the screen, you immediately got my attention (Crabbin video). I was born at Beaufort Memorial Hospital and lived on St. Helena Isl. Seaside Rd./Frogmore as a kid. I was there in 85 visiting family...CRAB, SHRIMP & OYSTERS ARE IN MY BLOOD AND PART OF MY DNA! The smell of the inlets swamp mud gives me Goose Bumps! Love watching your action channel, thank you! Is that the causway bridge goin from Beaufort to St. Helena??? My heart missed a beat when Steph threw that GOURMET Sand Dab back!!! Ship all San Dabs to me please! LOL💯💥💫
Welcome! We're glad you found our channel and we thank you for watching! The bridge in this video is the one that crosses from St. Helena Island to Habor Island. It's right pass Gay's Shrimp Company. It replaced the old narrow turn bridge that was there. The Sand Dab(flounder) that Steph threw back was to small. We call people that love this area and our videos Saltaholics. LOL! Stay safe and God bless!
@@SaltyReflections So im now not only a Geechee, Im a Geechee SALTAHOLIC! LOL!🤣🤣🤣 BWAAAAAAHAHAHAHA! BTW any "Inabinettes' or Williams on St.Helena Isl. that you may come across are my cousins! Torchy Burns is my stage name (I live in LA, CA.) my birth name is Leon Williams but I go by Torchy😃
Great video. Bubba Gump would be proud.
As long as you think it's great, it's good by me. Thanks for the comment and watching! 😆
wheweee wreckem yeah boyeeeee love it....ty beautiful day God is gooood.
LOL! Thanks. I remember this day being a ton of fun. Our buddy had a ball, and we did too.
If you could get Grant to hush chat so much you might get some fishing done, I love when you take him out he loves it out there
Glad you're enjoying the videos with Lagrande and I.
The Stingray in mexican salpicon so good
Really? Thanks for watching!
Can't believe how close those dolphins were!!
Yes, they get close enough to be a little scary. Their size can fool you from a distance.
Nice 👍
Thanks so much! We hadso much fun this day.
Stephanie you could have hand fed those dolphins...can you imagine that?! Graham was definitely your good luck charm, not to mention a hard worker. Didn't think I would find this interesting but it was GREAT! Now, show us how you cook them, lol.
😆 LOL (even if it were legal to do so) dolphins are pretty huge, especially that close up & have lots of teeth, 😂😱😁 so I don't think you'll ever see that. Seeing them are just one of the benefits of trawling. 😁 They are awesome though - my favorite animal ever! 💙🐬 I'm so glad you enjoyed it! & LeGrande is the best! 💙 I'll try to get Oliver to cook some up for us! 😉😋🦐🍤
I’m hungry. Lol
Eat plenty of the wild caught shrimp.
I see a shrimp boil coming!!!
Yessir, for sure! Fresh seafood is our favorite.
Watching from Houston area
Awesome! Thanks for watching in Texas!
Id sure love to go out sometime. I cant go as often anymore as I used to
Understand that.
I have a feeling that a road trip down to St. Helena is in my near future, I'll make sure to let ya know ahead of time so we can shake hands.
Come on!
God bless you all
Thank you for joining us!
I wanna go shrimping with dolphins 😲
IKR! They do make it more fun! 💙🐬
I have same size boat and motor. I think buy a net and start when my brother retires in a few years.
Go for it. Shrimping ain't easy but it's a lot of fun. Thanks for leaving us a comment and watching!
35 #,s tails on 1st pull, Not to shabby!!
We get lucky every now and then.
@@SaltyReflections Do you know how to pull up thru the broke off marker slough and back out??? Its right there by where yall pull at, You pull across the mouth of iot all the time but if you learn how to pull up thru it turn around an pull back out towards Harbor Is. beach, Wow!! They love to huddle up in that place really thick at times!! Just beware of the old broken off marker, I,ve caught it a couple times on my double rig boats and not fun!! lol. Keep em tight an do good guys!!!
@saxbychaplin1112 No, unfortunately not. Sounds like a good spot, but we are too scared of getting hung up on it so we just steer clear away from it. Have seen a few others get hung up there.
What a beautiful day. This is so exciting going on these trips. I'm from the hills of Tennessee. You have beautiful seagulls, we got buzzards. Just wondering, were you raised here, how did you learn to do all these things? What do you do with all these srimp? Thank you for taking the time to show us this video!🤗
LOL! We have buzzards too. I am a jack of all trades master of none. LOL! We have learned all types of things by listening to others and getting out putting in effort. We're just showing you all the things we truly love, if we didn't, we'd quit. We eat a lot of the shrimp we catch and use it for bait. We also sell some because we love trawling, and we definitely can't eat all we catch. Sometimes we catch enough shrimp to last us a year in one day. Thanks for watching in Tennessee!
Love your crabbing and trawling vidos. I understand the concept of trawling and basically how it works in all your videos I never see the doors to your net could you make one and show that? Also does a person need a special license to trawl for shrimp and is it recreational or commercial an is there a bag limit?
Nice reminds me of growing up .I'm a third generation shrimper .only thing now we use skimmers.not to be rude but just give my opinion to improve yalls catch cause it's white shrimps I would add more floats to ya top line on ya net an ya middle rope needs to be pull from higher .in the shallows we zig zag pulling our trawls.but every one an every thing benefit from trawling. Good 👍 video.
Thanks for the info. We're amateurs at trawling and have used knowledge through conversations to learn what we know at this point.
We used to toss the small fish as high as we could so that the gulls could catch them.
Yes, we do the same thing. There's nothing like being around all this life out on the water.
I just started shrimping here in Georgia, I love the videos. I am wondering where are you placing your bowies on your net. I have a 25ft net. Where how many bowies do I need and where would you suggest I place them? I don't have the sea turtle escape shoot. My net does have 2 sets of rings. When you pull your tail up are you disconnecting the net from the boat? I anticipate going out on my own so what would you suggest to easiest way to get the doors out correctly? Thank you for taking the time to help me out.
Wow... what a wonderful video! Loved seeing the dolphins next to your boat! Question... What do ya'll do with the shrimp? Keep it or sell it? Just wondering!
Thanks! We loving seeing the Dolphin 🐬 up close. We shrimp for fun but we sell them when we catch more than we need.
How much per pound?
I'm in between Charleston and Myrtle Beach. I'm not a UA-camr but I'm am very interested because my whole family loves seafood and I would love to do it myself because Georgetown, SC never have the seafood because they runs out so fast. So to keep the family happy, I want to get out there and do it for us lol.
I'm looking forward to the 2023 SC shrimp trawling season to come in. I hope we wreck them this year. 😆 We're going to be using our 25' Parker pilot house pulling a 42-foot trawl net this year. This boat is a lot more spacious and will allow us to take family and friends along. I hope we have some big pulls but most importantly I'm hoping for good memories with others. Stay safe and take care!
Amazing haul. Born in raised Pawleys island grew up doing this kind of stuff! Do you usually go off the coast for trawls?
Yes
Wrecked em!
Yes we did. Great day! Thanks for the comment and watching!
Sorry but I have one more comment and I'm in Hartsville S.C and those Shrimp look so good do you have a empty spot for me at the Table lol dud? I would love to book a charter with you Shrimping next season i have your info, and I'll be giving you a call brother!!!!
Sorry, we're not licensed to do charters.
Awesome video just out of curiosity what is the biggest net you can pull as a recreational fisherman there us in Alabama it’s 16 ft
Thanks. We're required to obtain a commercial license to pull all trawl nets here in SC. And, a captains license.
Y’all ever do any oyster’n? Great channel!👍🏼
Thank you! Yes, we have gathered some Oysters ourselves. We have some of the best Oysters in the world here in SC due to the high salt salinity in our waters.
Depending on your depth if less than 8’-10’…you will catch ‘more’ when NOT keeping your ‘wheel/prop’ wash in between your ropes…slight turn more successful! Bigger engines not recipe for larger trawls…light shallow draft boats tend to ‘slide/skid’…especially flat bottom boats: BIG misconception-reason(s) hard to make turns!!!!!!!!!!!! Learned info from 53 years of shrimping here in Louisiana (from recreational to 48 yrs. commercial shrimper…)! Good luck…👍🏻🍤👍🏻
Thanks for all the info. We're trying to figure everything out and it sure helps having others with experience sharing some knowledge.
throwback the by catch
Yep! Work, work, work, work, work! We trying!
Great catch... But I have a question....
how many meshes did you use to make the tail bag?
Thank you! I didn't make it but I believe it's made from one size. Got this old net and doors from a family member that use to be a commercial shrimper.
Ok I looked to your videos for inspiration and some good ideas. I’m way down in South America close to the Atlantic so I will be giving the small boat trawling a shot
@@efrendbarker1957 Just make sure you check the rules and regulations for trawling in your area. Stay safe.
Wow ! I have the exact same boat like yours. Can you show me how you set up your rig for trolling ?
Great boats. There's nothing to setting your boat up to trawl. You just need the net, pull ropes and a bridal.
Great video guys. That's a great haul for sure. I'm still undecided on how I feel about the by catch. The lady's comment about being MacDonald's and that the dolphins would be eating these by catch fish anyway is correct. I feel like it would be better if the dolphins were catching their own rather than being "fed" . I appreciate netting the shrimp for food, I've been harvesting my own food for many years. Not sure if I will purchase a net to do the same. I don't agree with most methods regarding commercial harvesting. I realize it's a way to make a living for many people. I saw many juvenile fish including sharks being released in bad shape. I'm not a tree hugging liberal by any means, trust me. Just my thoughts, not judging.
I agree, there's a lot of by catch. We never like when we're seeing a lot of it in our trawl net but it's just the easiest method that we've found for catching shrimp and filling our freezer. We do try to save as much of the by catch as we can to use in our crab traps. Just our way of trying not to be wasteful. Glad you enjoyed the video!
@@SaltyReflections Understood, keep up the videos. Thanks for the reply.
Must be nothing like eating fresh shrimp right out of the water , after cooking them . 🍤🍤🍤🍤
The fresher the better and it don't get any fresher than the ones you catch yourself. THEY"RE YUMMY!
Are you unhooking the ropes to the boards and then coming back around and picking up the sock. If so thats a good idea because I work myself to death pulling in the boards and the net every time?
LOL. Yes, you're working hard. Drop your pull ropes with a 10 lb anchor with rope and a bouy attached to it. Then go around to your tail bag. You need a rope and bouy attached to the front of your tail bag. They will pull behind your net as you pull. They also give you a rope to pull on if you hang your net on something on the bottom. The system works great. You'll need 2 ropes around 20 ft, 2 bouys, and 1 anchor. Happy shrimping, man. Enjoy.
Great video! That's a ton of work but certainly worth it. I wonder, with the huge number of seafood restaurants up and down the coast do you sell any of your harvest or freeze it all? After all, fuel is unbelievably expensive these days!
We freeze enough for us to eat throughout the year and keep a lot of the small shrimp for fish bait. We sell what we can when we catch to much and give bait shrimp to our friends that love fishing too. When we can get rid of what we catch it allows us to go back. Our freezer space is limited and we know we can't use but so much. It cost us around $100 in gas to trawl a day.

Okay. Thanks for replying so quickly. I talked to a crewmember on a trawler out of Holden Beach, NC about 12 - 15 years ago and he told me they had to catch a thousand pounds of shrimp before they saw the first dollar of profit. And fuel is WAAAY higher now.
Anyway, it looks like you've made a great life for you and your family out there on the water. Hopefully you can keep it going.
Take care. Tight Lines my friend. Tight Lines.
