'Richard (fisherman) mending the dragging nets. The nets were spread out and retied after every few fishing trips. It's an art form for the fishermen to tie them a certain way thats been done for hundreds of years. They have to be tied perfectly in squares so that fish cannot slip through. Pictured: Richard Salvador. Location: MacMillan Pier.'
