Good God, I'm turning into Forrest Gump!

[FlatoutFishin]

So Thursday afternoon, at the dock in Maty, feeling half lit and worn out after 2 days of fishing and...whatever. I'm approached about buying 40 lbs of deheaded, fresh off the boat 12-16ers for $4 a pound.
Long story short, Friday for dinner... boiled shrimp, Saturday for lunch...boiled shrimp. Sunday...more boiled shrimp. Monday...shrimp gumbo for dinner. Today...shrimp gumbo for lunch. Now I just had what was left of the boiled shrimp mixed in with spaghetti sauce bell pepper and onion....I'm done. NO MORE SHRIMP FOR THE YEAR!



That was the best shrimp gumbo I've ever tasted though!

Nothing like fresh local seafood!! Friends don't let friends eat imported shrimp!!

[imhammer]

Way too much shrimp Monte.....Save some for Jeremy to catch hardheads!

You CAN actually eat too much shrimp and get iodine poisoning. True.

Im screwed! You'd been proud..I actually boiled the shrimp shells(and two trout filets) for 6 hours with onion, garlic, and celery to make the stock for the gumbo Sandy! Rave reviews from my wifes work.

trade you a box of chocalates for a box of shrimp

Shouldn't be berling fillets in there Monte. You gotta berl da whole fish, less the guts. Need the heads in there for sure, not just the fish, but the scrimps. That's where all the good stuff is. Still sounds like you did a good job. Next time, go the extra mile, include da heads. You'll notice the difference.

I dont save heads or i would have! But also don't knock it till you try it, the filets boiled down to nothing and had the house smelling freakin awesome...REALLY! You had no chunks or anything...give it shot sometime.

Good stuff, I'll bet it was great.

I would be perfectly fine if shrimping in the Gulf and bays went the way of the dinosaur and all that was left was farm raised foreign. Noone should be allowed to f*** up that much seabottom and waste that much bycatch for some measly shrimp.

I think I got some iodine poisoning at the chinese buffet yesterday... I ate long time many shrimp!

I tend to agree, but those imports just don't cut the mustard in taste. Big GOM shrimp can't be beat!

I seen Monte at the grocery store buying stuff.
His eyes where bugging out and he was salivating at the mouth and saying something about celery and onions and then he just walked off like a zombie.
Now it all makes sense.
