sometimes they small, sometimes they big. They don't/can't take time to cull them or they would die.

That's right, I would pay the dude scooping my shrimp a couple extra dollars for bigger shrimp so I could cast & free line them with out a weight.

Plus east you buy per how many 50, 100 etc, west is by the pint....?????

I was told this by someone in the live shrimp business.

Maybe too lazy to cull.

yeah but instead of paying $30 for two quarts and only getting half usable shrimp you pay $25 and get 100 uniform sized shrimp
