Not pretty......Peter Mathiessen wrote a book some 20 yrs back called "Mens Lives" - the whole book is about several generations of fishermen netting bass like this on Long Island beaches from the 1930's on till it was banned in the 70's...launching dories into the surf and hauling net in w/trucks....a pretty good read as I recall.

another book to see where poor management leads is called "Cod", and based on the Newfoundland cod fishery in days gone by. A small book but a rather sobering read.
