Catching freshwater shrimp in the floodwaters of the Mississippi River is a seasonal tradition for some locals, especially during the warmer months when high waters stir up aquatic life. These small, translucent shrimp, often called "river shrimp" can be found in backwater pools, ditches, and shallow eddies created by the flooding. Using dip nets, baited traps, or even simple buckets, fishers wade through murky waters or set up along the banks, taking advantage of the shrimp's tendency to cluster in slow-moving or stagnant areas. The catch is usually best at dawn or dusk, when the shrimp are most active. Whether used as bait for catfish or cooked up in a pot, these tiny crustaceans are a hidden treasure of the Mississippi’s rich and complex floodplain ecosystem.
Are you planning a trip to catch shrimp yourself or just curious about the process?
