Don't nobody be headin' down to those parts talking about Key West Pinks. The local native species of shrimp are know as "Hoppers". They are usually a little smaller than the KW Pinks, but are very good. They are very proud of 'em in Charlotte Harbor and if you mention Key West Pinks, it's a dead give away you ain't from those parts.
They have a special extraction tool at the Ft. Myers General ER, just to remove rectally incerted white boots from tourists that "axe" about Key West Pinks at the local Fish Houses. Really.
