This section is a pictorial of some of the different fisheries in action.
Bally Hoo.......................
Setting the net in a big circle
now they tighten it up
Dipping them out filling the boxes
Salting them down
mending the net and do it all over again.
King Fishing a winter fishery
setting the nets and pulling them in
a lot of gutting
heading home after a long day and night
Stone Crabing Oct - May Lobstering Aug - March both are similar just different styles of traps
Gaff the buoy
clean the trap
measure the claws or lobster
Stack the traps
and take the catch to market
