Joo Moore. 26, bu-onzed and twill. l; ggcdllshcrman. Assucttbo is s wcrkingmgartr of Newfound- 3n’ bn us y. l Jigs shéagnty lies at the foot of signs], mil, the towering rockthst looms over this cncimt W" 5W3 the Narrows through which ships BQI- .

At. night, from the door of his shanty, one can see the little fish- ing boats bobbing 1n the swell be- low, m. nuslunc lllrht- on 0111111 3mg near the Narrows, the bi: ygvqlving beam on the far side. the riding beacon: o! firciahtcrs docked in the harbor and. the thousand twinkling 1131198 01 m? city itself.

One can smell the salt dryinz

on the flakes-or stagings-arotmd Joe's shanty and the score: of other shantles that twine around the foot of the hill. Always, there l5 the lap of tho sea at the pil- lugs. Joe i: owner and flipper of hi! own boat. and has a. crew o! five- scme of them have their tiny homes behind the staaipk! but those “who are not married spend most of their time, when not fish- ing. in the shanty.

The shanty ls on t-hll M00114 storey, so to speak. Below 1t i! the heavily-plunked wharf where the cod is railed down and stack- ed to dry. Under that again is the “um. The fish arc thrown out of the boats at the end of t-hv wharf and cleaned and hosed down on rough wooden tables.

Home And Workshop

‘File shanty consists of three rooms, one of them open to the weather. Fish are stacked in one. gear is kept l: another and the crew makes its home in a third. In this last room are two dmlblo bunks, s small table and bench and a stove and cupboard. The men do their own oookifl€ 88d are partial to bacon and eggs.

When working the cod oars-TIM and his men roll out about 5 cm. for their first trip of the day. Tho boat u about 25 m: 1on8 and carries an eight horsepower eng- ine.

In tho aunmlcr Joo and. his crew trap-dish. ‘Ilhfi 0'8?! l" square and buoyed at thc four corners. A "leader" is used to guide the cod into the nets.

Hauling the nets m. du-mvlns their contents and setting them out again l: back-breaking work. Joe's nets are about four miles mltside the harbor near Black- head. A trip may take three or four hours and the second is mad‘: about nightfall. After that comes the cleaning and ssltlng. One day's work may bc as short as l0 hours. Usually. however, a work- ing day runs to 1d or 18 hours.

Joe Moore began to fish when he was ll after his father was drowned. Before the war he could make only $300 s your (in 198d, 25 per cent of the working popu- lation made less than $100 l. year) but he's doing about five times better than that now.‘

Dried cod brings Newlfctlndlsnd around $17,000,000 s. your and fresh and frozen cod more ohm $6,000,000. ‘This represents about one quarter of Newfoundland‘: to- tal exports.

The cod industry can be classi- fied into three groups-Anthem, deep-sec and the Labrador.

Most. fishermen in Newfound- land--lhere arc about 30.000-work inshore. They use trawl lines early in the season and switch to cod traps later on. One of Joe Moore's cod nets may bring up 60.000 pounds 1n s single haul so that fish slop over the side: of the host. The traps usually are set on shoals rlear headland: and the take is big when the cod is "run- hing."

Deep-sea fishing is done almost exclusively from the south ooakt. by schooners up to 150 tons. Tlhey fish the blinks, great shoal: lying far on‘ the southeast coast. In winter schooner: sometimes ice up so badly that they turn turtle.

Two groups operate in Labrador wsters-"ststionei-s” wlho have their fishing "rooms" based on short-rand sahooners that carry their crews and gear with thfm from Newfoundland. They move about with the runs and split and salt their cod on board.
