Book excerpt: "To read this book is to spend a day on a 40-foot shrimp boat in a southern Texas bay, then return home to an isolated port town whose economy revolves around shrimping and whose future is in jeopardy. Often reading like a good novel, Maril's political economy of the Texas shrimp industry is written by someone who knows the inner workings of the industry and the communities that depend upon it. A rich and highly engaging study of the industry". -- Contemporary Sociology.

Book excerpt: Shrimpers who fish the shallow coastal waters of Texas fight a constant battle for survival—contending with shrimpers who fish the deeper gulf waters, competing with weekend sportsmen, wrangling with government regulations, and dodging environmentalists' incriminations. Add competition from the international market, an ominous threat frequently overlooked by bay fishermen, and the shrimpers; chances of winning—at least with their current lifestyle intact—are slim. In The Bay Shrimpers of Texas, Lee Maril explores the successes and failures of the shrimpers who prowl remote bays, rivers, and estuaries for their livelihoods. Through random sample surveys of fishermen, participant observation, and historical analysis, he examines the political, economic, and social realities confronting the shrimpers and their families. Legal and environmental constraints, price instability, work hazards and benefits (only one percent of the shrimpers surveyed had health insurance), rivalry with gulf and sport shrimpers, and conflict with Vietnamese refugees are all factors that affect the outlook for shrimping. Portraying the shrimpers' lives on land and water, Maril describes their boats, equipment, and various fishing strategies (both legal and illegal) used to survive in an increasingly competitive occupation. He gives an in-depth and personal look at an industry that in many ways has changed little over the last century and in others has haphazardly evolved as it enters into a ruthlessly competitive world marketplace. The prospects for bay fishing—a vital part of the cultural identity and tradition of many small coastal towns—are uncertain. By examining the past and clearing up misperceptions and myths, Maril provides valuable insight into not just the future survival or demise of one industry in a global economy, but the future of small business as a whole.

Book excerpt: In interviews with fishhouse and dock workers; boat owners and marine agents; wives, friends, and neighbors of shrimpers; and the shrimpers themselves, Robert Lee Maril reveals the web of social and economic relationships that bind Texas shrimpers to their difficult and often dangerous work.

Book excerpt: The shrimp fishery of Texas has been the focus of continuing resource management efforts. Six management alternatives, recently proposed in fishery management plans or legislation, are analyzed. Management alternatives consist of closure of specified areas for particular periods of time, changes in count size regulations, or both. The analyses were conducted using a computer simulation model General Bioeconomic Fishery Simulation Model designed to represent the important biological and economic processes of the Texas shrimp fishery. For given levels of growth coefficients and natural mortality coefficients the model produced results very close to historical landings in terms of volume, size and seasonal distribution. Six management alternatives were evaluated in terms of their impact on total landings, amount of discards, cost and returns, and fishing effort employed. Impacts were estimated both for the first year and for a long-run situation, which gave the industry time to adjust by increasing or decreasing the number of bay boats and Gulf vessels. Management alternatives closing Texas offshore waters in the Fisheries Conservation Zones simultaneously with state closure had a slightly negative impact on total landings in the first year. It was estimated that increased landings later in the year could not offset landings lost due to closure. The most significant increase in landings resulted from management alternatives including elimination of the count size law. This was reflected in both first-year and long-run equilibria. Under all management alternatives examined, the number of Gulf vessels increased and the number of bay boats declined. Management alternatives eliminating the size restriction on landed shrimp would have the greatest impact on increasing vessel numbers. Because the industry in 1980 is not in equilibrium, short-run increases in vessel profits associated with these management alternatives would reduce some of the pressure forcing vessels out of the industry. It was found that closure of inshore waters during the spring season would have a negative impact on total landings the first year and only a small positive impact at equilibrium. At equilibrium, Gulf vessel landings were estimated to increase by 2.65 million pounds (heads-off) annually, with bay landings being reduced by 2.50 million pounds.
