Drawing nets
Back 8. Drawing netsForward

Nets are drawn up by hand along the side of the boat. It is very strenuous and tiring work that can take up to 60 to 90 minutes per net. Often the nets catch on rocks and are broken free only through the use of intense pulling or the use of the motor. Bottom nets get tangled very easily and often contain a lot of debris that must be cleaned out as the net is pulled into the boat.
