Has anyone tried pulling a net this year?
You will lose whatever you caught and may also lose your net along with the fine you will be paying, if caught.
I asked a DNR officer about the bait shrimp years ago. There is no closed season as the above poster says; however, the bait shrimp MUST be taken in approved bait shrimp designated areas. These areas do not lend themselves to the use of a seine, unfortunately. There are no designated bait shrimp areas on the sandy beaches of the barrier islands where seines are typically used.
You can claim ignorance of this fact while he writes the ticket...

No...that's wrong.

Here's info on recreational food & bait shrimp cast
netting; as you'll see on page 4--"no closed areas".
