I can! Brother
George Reno taught me how. Bro. George was our Mennonite pastor and still a friend for over two decades. He and his wife Ruby are naturalists who took meticulous records of tides, shrimp harvests, moon phases, etc. They know all the sea life on the Gulf Coast and it's wetlands.
LSU and
Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries would ask his help at times. George grew up on Pass Manchac and was a shrimper/fisherman all his life - even when pastoring the church. Although retired now, he still is very active in the church.
And those pesky alligators! They really scare the tourists. But, they are easy to call, especially in mating season, and will come up close to the land. Just, DON'T go in the water.

And how about a 1000 year old shrimp boat?
