Aboard a trap fishing boat, delivering fish at freezer. Most of the trap boats are owned by the freezer. Men work on shares, the company fifty percent. Prices are set according to day's supply in all traps. As in almost all cases traps share equally in a day's run. Fishermen get little either way, they either sell little fish for a comparatively decent price or much fish for little. Provincetown, Massachusetts
