Gene would those things be any good to eat? If so there may be a solution.. (butter, lemon and garlic!)

Probably, but the concern is that they will render all of the local
species extinct....

So then why isn't the shrimp industry screaming bloody murder? Are they
that good, maybe they are an "easy keep" population? Just putting on my
tin hat here

If these are the same tiger shrimp, they are likely to be what you get

in a lot of places (the black and gray ones at the store)

I have to believe, game fish like to eat them. I guess it depends on

where they are showing up and if they are competing with native

shrimp.

I didn't realize these are the same as 'black prawns"

Thanks!

Visit your local neighborhood oriental market and you'll find them, big
ones, on ice and ready to take home.

I wish we had one around here, but I'd say the closest one would probably be 80-100 mi. away. If we did have one I'd probably dig out the electric wok and get heavy with it. Then again, I think we can get frozen prawn at the local IGA. already de-veined and ready to grill.


I'll have to check that out.

I sort of had the idea, obviously incorrect, that you weren't that far
from a major city. There are some really large and spectacular oriental
markets over the river in Northern Virginia, and they sell meats, fish
and produce I've never seen before, along with the more usual items.

That is a bummer, Any town that's worth anything is yes, a minimum of 80 mi.. from me. I'm in a cornfield in the middle of nowhere.

LOL!

Well, then, where are your photos of your scarecrows and those of your
neighbors?

There's a huge piece of farm equipment one of the local implement shops
has out by the street as a decoration. It's rusty, and it looks like the
back end of a steam tractor, or maybe not. I dunno. I'll have to snap a
photo of it and you can tell me what it is.

I am assuming they must be quite tastey as "how they are for eating" is
conspicuously left out of most of the reports I am seeing... If they
didn't taste as good as the tiny little shrimp we have now, I think you
would be hearing that...
