The catching shrimp part probably needs some grammar checking, and I can't remember what the name is for the volleyball net method of catching shrimp, perhaps someone that has actually done this can elaborate some.. PbS

Catching Shrimp by horse

How about a chapter on the traditional way of shrimping, using mules and horses?

Belgium has one village left (Oostduinkerke) where one can still see people riding horseback in (!) the sea.

My dad and brother are two of the seven people still doing this, and I could provide some more information, but obviously not the correct wording for this topic (Someone would need to edit my contribution).

Your suggestions or comments?

something to try to fit in there somewhere is the unexpected etymology, that being that the animal name shrimp came -after- the term-for-a-small-person/thing shrimp, meaning the shrimp was a 'shrimp lobster'.. only it was like schrimp back then. someone research plz!
