WLOX-TV - The News for South Mississippi: Lack Of Ice Melting Start Of Shrimp Season: "Battered and beaten shrimp boats that survived Katrina are about to embark on a journey into familiar, yet uncharted waters. And Joey Wilson can't wait.
'You don't want to miss the first day,' the owner of the Capn Roy said.
Wednesday morning, his shrimp nets will trawl Mississippi waters again. If the nets don't get knotted up by hurricane debris, the season should get off to a plentiful start. At least that's what William Parker was told.
'A lot of the shrimpers say there are nice, big shrimp out there,' the recreational shrimper said.
But at the Ocean Springs Harbor where Parker's boat is docked, shrimpers know the size of their catch won't matter if they have no way to freeze it.
'If we don't get no ice, we won't be heading out,' Bobby Wilson said."
