How to determine if vortex shedding will occur?.

This question is more from the theory point of view rather form a CFD simulation point of view.

With given object dimensions and speed moving inside a fluid. How do I decide if vortex shedding will occur knowing a strouhal number?.

Does it mean that every thing immerse into a fluid will shedding?
