It's easy if you happen to be out at sea when a hurricane rolls in and destroys your competitors' boats in port.

Depends on how you shrimp. From a shrimp trowller, using a drop net or casting.

shrimping is probably pretty easy, you wait for a shrimp to come along and just grab it. I mean, how much of a fight could one of those little bitty things actually put up? after all, they're shrimps. Now badgering, well that's another matter entirely.

LOL my first thought was of Forrest Gump as well.
And yes, shrimping is very hard work.

Yeah, it's just like everything else in the free market economy. You just borrow or inherit enough money to buy a state of the art boat and hire experienced hands you can trust, and sit home and wait for the money to roll in.
