Alexis Vera Gill Nets

A few times, we caught fish with big gill nets. We then took them from the nets one by one, held them against the ground, and hit them in the head with a bat. This stuns them so that they don’t flop around. We then put them in a fishing toat, which is a huge square plastic bin where all of the fish are kept. We took them to a big table where we took turns filleting them and cleaning them. We then bagged them and took them to the foodbank to be distributed to people that may otherwise not be able to afford salmon steaks.
