Nice. I was going to try spot shrimp but got sick mid-week and am still on the mend.
Relax. You'll live longer.

Did better than me. I took my Yak out on the Hood Canal (first time shrimping) and only pulled 4 shrimp. Where did you put in?

It's hard to hold a shrimp out 3 feet from your body so you can't see your arms, lol.  While it could be a barbie fork, it's a nice one and kudo's for the long pull.  I'm not sure you get ahead calorie wise after that much work, but that wouldn't hurt many of us either.
 I tied paddling the length of the canal from Belfair to the bridge in a fast sit-in a few years ago and didn't anticipate the first day of shrimping.  Nearly got run over by boats several times and finally called it at Seabeck.  Nice job!
