There's 4 different way's
1 Dredge/scrape ,it drag's along the bottom; when it fill's up with everything they pull it up with a winch/winder .
2 Diving , diver collect's oyster's in a crate that's attached to the boat by a rope . When full the diver yank's a certain way on the rope and they slide an empty crate down the line that's also attached to the boat then diver unhook's empty one and they pull up the full one.
3 Hand tong's , small basket like claw's attached to wooden shaft's of various length's for different depth's . There worked by hand .
4 Patent tong's , 5-6ft long steel claw like basket's that you drop open ; then when they hit bottom you close and quickly pull up then swing over the boat and slightly open so everything picked up is dropped onto a culling table for sorting . This is all achieved by working 2 pedal's . an open/close for the tong's and an up/down for the winder .
And cool things are dredged up in the nets as well..

OK. So it's like my senses of taste and smell are on steroids. I just took a shower to try and stink less. I felt like the aroma of the soap was assaulting my nose. Like I could REALLY smell all the stuff in it. And my gingerale tastes so ufcking good. Like sweeter than normal.

Have you been bitten by a spider, a bat, experimented with gamma, encountered sentient black ooze, been experimented on by the government, found out you're related to a gobble / demi-gobble, or snorted coke?

Hungry. Don't want to eat tho. I miss food.

Only thing I've eaten in the last 3 days is toast, popcicles, & gingerale.
Pour the gingerale in little solo cup's ; place in freezer wait a little while then put recycled popcicle stick's in !
Just a thought . Hope the stomach bug passes soon !! ;)

That was me last week. Needed to send out _emails_ to candidates. Not talk to them, just emails to set up interviews.

Lol yeah didn't figure catch was the term but thought it sounded funny.
Wife's car needs a radiator but I have to remove the entire front of the car to take out the two bolts holding it in.

I might find a random engineer and choke them for a bit just for entertainment.
This is my everyday. It's that way all the way through the car industry though. The name the repair manual calls something isn't the same name in the parts catalogs so they are like you want a what? I spent an hour the other day figuring out that Ford had listed a fuse as 34 on the wiring diagram but it was in the 27 slot on the fuse block. I discovered then that none of the fuses matched called ford tech assist and they went hmmm well call these people to report it - Nope I called you it's now your issue.

It took getting my wife (an English major) to write up a template for me, then it was easy. But asking me to do it was so anxiety inducing that I couldn't get started. Had three interviews yesterday that went fine and another one this afternoon.

It's my Friday. And it is pissing rain. And we're working outside.

I'm looking forward to this evening.
