Dory Project Scholarship: Documents

Fishermen are often romanticized; they are lonely wanderers separated from the trials of life encountered on "dry land." To a commercial fisherman or even someone casually acquainted with the fishing industry, stereotypes seem naïve at best.

From river netters to ocean trollers, theirs is a story of both persistence and change.
