Illus: Sardine Picture Page. First step in preparing to trap sardines in purse seine is to make ready the Coral Sea's skiff. No 13: Nick Zuvella ( hands in pockets) watches as other crew members lift bow of skiff just prior to letting it go over the stern. No 4: Jack Taormina, left, and Pete (the Barber) Balestreri in skiff from purse seiner Coral Sea as skiff hits the water. Taormina tends net lines while Balestreri tends oar. No 5: With skiff drifting away in background, Nick Zuvella climbs up on net on knees to watch for any snarling of nets as it plays out. Coral Sea continues ahead at moderate speed to insure fast running out of net. Coral Sea will complete circle back to skiff. No 3: Nick Zuvella watches corner of net for snags as it is paid out. No 7: Net circle completed, Coral Sea's skiff with Jack Taormina and Pete Balestreri in it tends to bobbing cork line which holds up net. Bottom of net is 180 feet down at this point. First step in trapping fish now is to pull rings at bottom of net together to form "purse" of seine and haul this part of net to deck of fishing boat. No 2: At winch, James Lucido pulls in slack on cable while Joe Zupparde ( in slickers) and other crew members prepare to gather in net to be secured on deck. Note cluster of rings at top of net. These rings were drawn together while net was under water and closed 'purse' on sardines. The rings have been drawn up from center of purse which now makes remainder of net only 90 feet under water. No 1: 'Stacking of net' now begins. Pete Balestreri in foreground, guides line with ring on it (ring is in his hands) while other crew members spread out net to fold it in as it is dropped from top of boom. Net is laid in folds so that it will run out more easily in next 'set'."; Supplementary material continues: "Att.: Riblett. Gershon. Sardine page captions. No 9: Pete Balestreri, foreground, reaching for hook to put in sling he has wrapped around gathered section of net coming over the side of the Coral Sea while Pete Iacono removes sling from section of net just landed on deck of net turntable. No 10: As net gets closer to the side of seiner even the "Skipper" lends a hand. Captain Tony Barcott, owner of Coral Sea, is shown hauling in guide line. No 12: Crew members haul in remaining lengths of net to bring fish to surface ready for "brailing", next step in landing fish. In this shot, sardines are shown just below the surface of water. No 8: Fish are ready for "brailing" (bringing hold of purse seiner, Coral Sea). Looking down, top of head of Pete Balestreri is seen. No 15: Sardines pour out of ring (mouth) of brailer into hold of Coral Sea. Brailer has large ring attached to long handle and long net-like sack. Ring or "mouth" is dipped into fish at side of vessel, brought to hatch opening and then "tail" of sack is lifted by boom and cable to dump fish into hold. In this shot, Nick Zuvella watches (he's in slicker while James Lucido tends winch). No 16: Joe Zupparde (in checkered shirt) watches as silver stream of sardines pile out of brailer into holds of Coral Sea. No 11: Another view of sardines going from brailer into hold of Coral Sea. When fog closes down on fishing boat, fathometer is used to intercept schools of fish. No 14: Joe Zupparde whose job it is to read fathometer points to numbers which indicate how deep school may be. A red "blip" marks surface and two red blips mark depth of bottom, any recordings in between indicate movement of fish. No 10: Capt. Tony Barcott shown at radio as he exchanges fish information with other skippers".; Supplementary material continues: "Att Riblett. Sardine picture page. Fishermen guard certain information about locale of fish but obvious information is relayed among fleet. No 6 and 18: Fog closed down on fishing boat New Home II which Coral Sea encountered. But fog was too late to prevent New Home II from scooping up 30 tons of sardines, shown being "brailed" aboard. Photo taken from bow of Coral sea which Capt. Tony Barcott put in this close for photo taken in heavy fog".本数据集包含16张图片，主题为1951年11月1日的沙丁鱼捕捞专题版面（Sardine Page (Fishing)），涉及人员包括皮特·巴莱斯特雷里（Pete Balestreri）、托尼·巴科特船长（Captain Tony Barcott）、乔·祖帕德（Joe Zupparde）、杰克·陶尔米纳（Jack Taormina）以及詹姆斯·卢西多（James Lucido）。 补充说明如下： 注：说明文字与底片已按顺序整理。收件人：里布莱特（Riblett）、格申（Gershon）。配图为沙丁鱼专题版面。 围网（purse seine）捕捞沙丁鱼的第一步，是为“珊瑚海号（Coral Sea）”的作业小艇（skiff）做好准备。 编号13：尼克·祖维拉（Nick Zuvella，双手插兜）旁观其他船员将小艇船艏抬起，准备将其从船尾下放。 编号4：杰克·陶尔米纳与“理发师”皮特·巴莱斯特雷里乘坐围网渔船“珊瑚海号”的小艇，此时小艇正入水。陶尔米纳负责整理网绳，巴莱斯特雷里则操控船桨。 编号5：背景中小艇已随波漂远，尼克·祖维拉双膝跪在渔网上，以便在渔网放出时观察是否出现缠结。“珊瑚海号”以中等航速前行，以确保渔网能够快速放出，随后将完成绕圈回到小艇位置。 编号3：尼克·祖维拉观察网角，以防渔网放出时出现勾挂。 编号7：渔网绕圈完成，搭载杰克·陶尔米纳与皮特·巴莱斯特雷里的“珊瑚海号”小艇开始操控随网漂浮的浮子绳，该绳索用于撑起渔网。此时渔网底部已下潜至180英尺深度。围捕鱼群的下一步操作，是将渔网底部的圈绳收拢，形成围网的“围袋”，并将该段渔网拖拽至渔船甲板上。 编号2：詹姆斯·卢西多在绞盘（winch）处收紧缆绳余裕，乔·祖帕德（身着防水工作服）与其他船员正准备收拢渔网，以便将其固定在甲板上。请注意渔网顶部的圈绳集群：这些圈绳在水下时被收拢，将沙丁鱼围在“围袋”中，且已从围袋中心向上提拉，使得剩余渔网的下潜深度仅为90英尺。 编号1：“叠放渔网”的作业随即开始。前景中的皮特·巴莱斯特雷里正手持带圈的绳索进行引导，其他船员则铺开渔网，在通过吊杆（boom）下放时将其折叠整齐，以便后续下网时能够顺畅展开。 补充说明续： 收件人：里布莱特、格申。沙丁鱼版面说明文字。 编号9：皮特·巴莱斯特雷里在前景处，正伸手将挂钩插入缠绕在已起吊至“珊瑚海号”舷侧的收拢渔网段的吊索中，此时皮特·亚科诺（Pete Iacono）正将吊索从刚卸至渔网转盘甲板的渔网段上取下。 编号10：当渔网靠近渔船舷侧时，连“船长”都亲自上手协助。图中为“珊瑚海号”船东托尼·巴科特船长，正牵拉导向绳。 编号12：船员们收拢剩余渔网段，将鱼群拖至水面，准备进入“起捞（brailing）”环节，这是卸鱼的下一步操作。本照片展示了刚浮出水面的沙丁鱼群。 编号8：鱼群已准备好进行“起捞”作业（将鱼群转移至围网渔船“珊瑚海号”的货舱）。拍摄视角为俯视，可见皮特·巴莱斯特雷里的头顶。 编号15：沙丁鱼从起捞网（brailer）的环形开口（“鱼口”）倾泻而出，流入“珊瑚海号”的货舱。起捞网配有大型环形开口，连接长手柄与长网状袋囊：将环形开口（即“鱼口”）浸入船侧的鱼群中，将其吊至舱口上方，再通过吊杆与缆绳提起袋囊“尾部”，将鱼群卸进货舱。本照片中，尼克·祖维拉（身着防水工作服）正在旁观，詹姆斯·卢西多则在操控绞盘。 编号16：乔·祖帕德（身着格纹衬衫）正注视着银色的沙丁鱼流从起捞网倾泻入“珊瑚海号”的货舱。 编号11：另一张沙丁鱼从起捞网流入货舱的视角画面。当渔船遭遇大雾时，会使用测深仪（fathometer）来搜寻鱼群。 编号14：负责读取测深仪数据的乔·祖帕德，正指向指示鱼群可能深度的数值。测深仪的红色“光点”标记水面，两个红色光点标记海底深度，两者之间的任何记录都代表鱼群的移动轨迹。 编号10：托尼·巴科特船长在无线电旁，与其他船长交换渔情信息。 补充说明续： 收件人：里布莱特。沙丁鱼图片版面。 渔民会对鱼群出没的具体位置保密，但通用渔情会在船队间互通。 编号6与18：“珊瑚海号”偶遇“新家二号（New Home II）”渔船，当时大雾已笼罩该船，但大雾并未妨碍“新家二号”捞起30吨沙丁鱼，照片展示了该船正在进行起捞作业。本照片拍摄于“珊瑚海号”的船艏，由托尼·巴科特船长调整至近距离拍摄，以记录大雾中的作业场景。
