shrimp...in a quart
 
Someone asked how many shrimp were in a quart...
Well I was board this morning and counted a 2 quart while eating breakfast...

Counted 79 and 87 .....

man, I wish they sold em by the quart around where I fish. a 100 shrimp for us is usually $25. sometimes around 20. but at $15 for 80, you cant beat that, but they also got you over a barrel too cuz at 80 it kinda puts you in a median zone of not having enough or having too many depending on the amount of people fishing. so I may come out better overall buying per shrimp

BTW thanks for spending the time to count

What size shrimp where these? 60 count or more like 80 count.

FYI.......some places will sell 1/2 quart at a time.

thanks for the count! i always wonder how many it is when i get them for the rigs. i always end up running out.

the charter guy I go with, counts on 50 shrimp per person and we fish from daylight until around 1

I have no clue about shrimp size... Guy said you can get up to a 100 in a quart...depends on shrimp size...these here are mixed size....

Well then, your conclusions are pointless:D

I hear they sell them by the pint and quart size here, quantity per unit is based on the size of the shrimps. Sometimes a quart has 12 schwimps.

Ok he said if you count 10quats you will have a 85 avg shrimp count
He only sells 55-70 count shrimp

W, the last video ya sent out was insane! by the way, what the F are ya doing buying shrimp? Live Bait for W. You guys must have oil in big lake, oops, Lake Pickle.

Look at it this way . . . 80 shrimp . . . trout limit is 10/person . . .how many people fishing? Do the math . . .even if hardheads eat half, you just got to adjust! . . . I usually get 2 quarts . . .

PReaux 06-09-2010 04:46 PM

"W", you got a problem with "pint size" bait? . . . lol

Garfish 06-10-2010 11:06 AM

When I buy a quart of shrimp it usually takes me a while to go through them myself. I would say there are about 50-70 shrimp/qt. avg. depending on the size of them. Large count = less shrimp; small count = more shrimp. If I'm fishing w/ someone else, we'll buy more.
Hopefully that clears it up. LOL...
