Meant to go this year but never got round to it. I believe the best months are all months without an R, so May to August, so the season is well and truly over. Rollocks!

Does anyone have any top tips, other than not to miss the season? smile

We cook ours prawns in sea water, with seaweed for max flavour cloud9

Try a calendar.
That have a list of all the months, and you turn over each page to follow them.
You can also highlight the letter R with a marker pen.

editied to add-

use very small hooks, as they don't have big mouths.

Thought it was the other way round - ie months with an r in them.

I'm not sure that Prawns or Shrimps are seasonal IIRC you can harvest them all year round.
