Description
As far back as the late 1700's, shrimp were being fished in the lakes south of New Orleans with large nets brought from France. Today, many shrimpers live in settlements along the bayous of south Louisiana and along the lower Mississippi River. They come from a tradition of fishing and shrimping during the spring, summer and fall months, then oystering and trapping during the winter months. Shrimpers feed our voracious appetites for shrimp, shrimp, shrimp!

Lovely! I feel the "wetness" of the place in all your work- Maybe it's because I live in the desert :)
