Brailing herring onboard 'King Fisher', CN263, c.1935
Brailing herring onboard 'King Fisher', CN263, c.1935. The boat ‘squared’ alongside her is her neighbour, ‘Kingbird’ CN264.

Herring are scooped out of the net with a brailer, a long stocking shaped bag attached to an iron hoop on a wooden pole. The tail of the bag is hoisted from the brailer derrick and the fish is emptied into the deck pound or hold.
