Fishermen River Tweed
Fishermen River Tweed
Salmon fishing in the River Tweed at Berwick upon Tweed. The same process of sweep netting has been used for many years. The net is spread by a boat, called a coble. Then the net is pulled in by hand while the fishermen are standing on a small island exposed at low tide.
