Jekyll Island and Seining

Your net is legal for recreational shrimping. It's a bit short for numbers of shrimp, but it will catch them. Since you already have the 50' net, use it till it wears out. For serious shrimping a 75'x8' net is the smallest I would recommend.
You need to be careful with the waders, it's a good way to drown. The bottom is often uneven in the areas seining is typically done and there are places where you can step into a hole and fill them up. I really wouldn't recommend using them.
The season typically ends on December 31. Shrimp can be caught during the daylight hours with cloudy days being better for numbers of shrimp.
