I am planning on picking up some shrimp in the hackberry area that day. since season opens at 6am that day i would imagine by the afternoon they will have boats at docks unloading right?

Probably not.

At least not around here. Most of the boats that make opening day are 2 day hit it and quit it fill their own freezer boats. The factory boats mostly skim at night and are at the dock in the AM to unload. I'd wait till Tuesday or Wed if you buying from the Factory.
