Bait shops around my neck of the woods use to sell bait shrimp in a card borad box called "TV Shrimp" whole shrimp with the heads on. Havent bought it in a few years though..

Local grocery stores around here with seafood departments usually have nicer shrimp with head on or off for less cost than the dinky shrimp you buy in a box at the bait stores. Works good hooked all the way down through with the middle to the tail with hook tip barely exposed on 3/0 to 5/0 hook.
There is no more humbling experience for man than to be fully immersed in nature's artistry.
