2022 Spring Shrimp Season

2022 Spring Louisiana shrimp season opened May 9. Inshore landings on shrimp for peeling have been strong. Concerns of high fuel cost and limited labor affecting prices still exist but the strong landings of larger sizes have reduced the impact of high fuel prices. Headless white shrimp prices have begun to soften as inventory levels grow. The bulk of headless inventories will be packed in the fall season which runs August-January.
