Shrimp

Man-o-man, the foreign imports have sure kept the local shrimpers from getting good prices for their catch. Made a run to Bayou la Batre at lunch, and picked up 30 lbs of just caught U-12's off the boat for $4 a lb. I did some shrimping back in the late 80's, and was getting $4 lb for 16-20's, to show how depressed the current prices are now.

WHOA!! I can’t recall what I paid 10 years ago when I lived down there, but I know it wasn’t $4!
