Two men are in a small fishing boat on the water. One holds the oar with the other has a ribbed net in both hands, pulling it out of the water. The sky is cloudy and there are high bluffs across the open water in the background.

Six men are sitting in the canopied boat the "Eleanor G." The one seated in the back carries a gun, while some of the men in the middle are smoking their pipes. The boat is still banked and has not shoved off into the river.

A hat-less man is seated on the large stones that make up a portion of the wing dam that extends across the water. He is dangling a long fishing pole downriver.

A man has 'docked' his fishing boat along the mostly water-covered wing dam across the river ,and is standing on a portion of the uncovered stones to fish.

Closest to the camera are three men standing on a stone-and-wood jetty, dangling their fishing poles into the water. There are at least two people on the jetty in the distance.

A man is fishing from a dam built through the center of a body of water. It is about ten feet across, stone and gravel making a path in the center and about two feet of sticks shoring up either side.

Five men are hauling a net full of catch onto the bank of the river. There are two or three men in a fishing boat still on the water behind them, and another four men are walking along the bank of the river waiting for them.

Three men are knee-deep in the water, stringing out a line presumably to help them fish. There are two empty boats in the water, one by the men and the other off the the right with a crank mounted in it. Another man is working on the nets on the bank…

Four men and a younger boy are pulling up a weighted, broad net from the river. There is netting already piled on the bank, and a boat with a crank shaft floats to the right of the photo.

Shot from the opposite bank, the photo shows a small one-story barge and a tent set up amid the trees. There is a stone bluff to the right.
