The american fishing schooner - Benjamin W. Latham 1902 (MS2109)
Year: 1973 Language: English Author: Ronnberg R. Genre: Manual Publisher: Model Shipway Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 48 Description: The northward spring migrations of the American mackerel (Scomber scombrus, L.) gave rise to one of the most interesting and speculative facets of the New England fisheries in the second half of the 19th century and the early decades of the 20th. Many methods were developed to capture these wily and unpredictable fish, the most successful being the purse-seine, a large net which was set in a ring around a mackerel school and then closed by “pursing,” or drawing its bottom edge together with a “purse line,” thus forming a bag from which the trapped fish were baled with large dipnets.
