shrimp boats
Gulf fishing craft
Shrimp boats are commercial fishing vessels designed for catching shrimp, typically equipped with outrigger nets that drag along the ocean floor.
They're a familiar sight along the Gulf Coast and South Atlantic, where shrimping is a major industry: The shrimp boats come in with the morning tide.
The phrase evokes coastal fishing culture and working waterfronts.
