immense

Steveston

seine nets are immense, and when set in the water often stretch out 12oom, and hang vertically 200m...checking their condition keeps the crew busy for quite a while

Nikkor 18-200mm - 1/800s f/11.0 at 18.0mm iso160 full exif

Looks like a tough job. Hopefully there are limits on fish hauls. V

A big job handling those huge nets and keeping them in good repair. Excellent catch of the work.

WOW - that is amazing - I had no idea the gets were that big. Can't imagine repairing the holes :( Great shot David. V

Neat shot, it's difficult to imagine handling such large nets.

A very interesting view

1200 x 200 m! That's huge. No wonder care is needed to prevent over-fishing.

Very good from this vantage point and well timed as well.

Quite interesting to see all the work involved in maintaining these enormous nets.

Commercial fishing is a tough business. Nice reportage on this interesting (to me) subject. V

A profession most never think about but love their results. Neat storytelling!

Another cool working shot. Love seeing the men working together to get the job done.
