The busy Merasheen fish plant wharf in 1961.  Freddy Best, with a crate of fish. Din Pat Walsh splitting on the left, Aiden Best cutting, Angus Pitcher heading and gutting.  Way in the back-right is Lar Pitcher who may well be working in the Cod Oil Factory at that time but, come hell or high water, he’ll be fishing soon with son Angus and Martin Connors jr. will team up with him as well.  Lar said that Martin was one of the best hard working fishermen that he ever seen.
