In the center, a man wearing a buttoned shirt, with its sleeves folded up, over jeans and a light-colored cap on his head is observable. He is holding a rusting fishing reel over the egde of a boat and looking down the water. Behind him, there are three additional men partially visible holding either a fishing string or a fishing reel over the water.
