Description
Photograph of men and women on a fishing barge, ca.1920. To the right of the center, a row of men and women are sitting next to each in a fishing area by the side of the boat
the row extends into the background. One of the women is holding up a rod with a fish hanging at the end of the string. Every person seems to be holding a fishing rod which creates a row of these over the edge of the boat. In the right, a group of young men can be seen on the beam.
The forepeak is observed in the right background and on its roof additional people are visible holding fishing rods over the boat's edge.
