Antone R. Everett hoses down the catch while John R. Everett steers.

Note the number of bushels in the stern and the post from which the dredge is towed. One or two wraps around the post can mean the difference between success or not. The manila tow rope's vibrations tell what is happening at the dredge. Steel wire is used for the haulback. Fishing is in the Fairhaven-New Bedford Outer Harbor.
