Description
Excerpt from Gleanings From the Sea: Showing the Pleasures, Pains and Penalties of Life Afloat With Contingencies Ashore
There are two phases of deep-sea fishing, one called shore, the other bank. It is of the former that I shall Speak, from experience, and of the latter, state some facts obtained from other sources. Shore fishing (so called by the fishermen) is where the fishermen go from three to thirty miles from land, and where their trips hardly ever exceed a fortnight, and are oftener less.
