I dont know about over thee, but on Rockefeller Reserve they dont go by the 5 gallon bucket anymore. They weigh the shrimp. and if you fill a 5 gallon bucket to the top it will hold up to 5 lbs or so more depending on the size of the shrimp. And if you have 25 lbs and are still casting they will write you up in a heartbeat. They did this because people were bringing pool chemical buckets which are larger than five gallons and saying oh I thought it was a 5 gallon bucket. I am just saying because this is the time the shrimp start to pour out the marshes in great numbers and the wardens are putting sting operations in place. Oh and the limit is per boat/vehicle not per person.
