I agree Spot Shrimp are tasty, but probably not be practical given the depth.
I was thinking about getting a prawn trap and using it to catch shrimp for bait... Sheepshead comes to mind, also Opaleye, etc. Will post my experiences when I finish my research and acquisition stage ![]() |

Not practical here, but they do fish for them in the Pacific NorthWest out of kayaks. I was just reading last week on a British Columbia Kayaking forum about guys who would drop shrimp pots on the way out to fish for Lings, then retrieve them on the way back in. I suppose you could do crab pots that way too in locations where they are shallow enough.

I used a cast net from a kayak in NC, and your right Matt, its a bit tough. We dont have shallow water shrimp in CA. The are spot prawns and coon stripe shrimp, as well as the little salad type pink shrimp but they are all deep water dwellers. Sadly, Put your yak on the top of your car and drive to seafood city.
