"Harvesting sand shrimp using a pump involves extracting the small crustaceans from wet sandy areas, typically along tidal flats or estuaries. A specialized hand-operated or motorized pump is inserted into the sand where shrimp are likely to be hiding. The pump creates suction, pulling up a mixture of sand, water, and shrimp. This mixture is then filtered through a sieve or net to separate the shrimp from the debris. It's a popular method among bait collectors and is often done during low tide for the best results."
