The Bridge family
Fishing aboard the "Storm
Bay"
Tasmanian fishermen use rods or
"jig-sticks" to lure and then land the
barracouta 
The rod is jerked back on to a temporarily erected chute,
the line slackens and the barracouta frees itself and
slides down the chute into the well.
As the "Storm
Bay" makes for port, the fishermen
chop the heads and draw the entrails out without opening
the fish, ready to store
