Litopenaeus setiferus Atlantic White Shrimp

The Atlantic White Shrimp "Popping Shrimp" are also an integral  part of the oceans food chain and are found throughout many of our saltwater ecosystems. Their spawning cycles  occur while the water is warm, between the increase in water temperatures in the spring and the sudden decline in temperature in the fall.  It generally occurs within 9 km (5.6 mi) of the shoreline, in water less than (30 ft) deep in the Atlantic, (26–102 ft) deep in the Gulf of Mexico. 

Males attach a spermatophore to the females, which is then used to fertilize the eggs as they are  released. Each female releases 500,000–1,000,000 purplish eggs,  (0.008–0.012 in) across, which sink to the bottom of the water column.

The Popping shrimp is a design replicating the physical escape and protective motion of a white shrimp before its consumed by a gamefish such as speckled trout, redfish, or any other predator in its food chain. Considered by most the favorable bait of choice and delectable if you have a few left over!
