You might want to contact Dr. Henry Miller at Historic St. Mary's City. He
has done faunal analysis of Potomac and Chesapeake Bay fish in the 17th
century. Karin Stanford, Museum of Florida History

Subject: Fishing
Does anyone know about fishing in the early 1800s in the mid-Atlantic? We
have lists of the species of fish caught and eaten in Virginia during this
time frame, but no one seems to know how they were caught. Was there a type
of commercial fishery, or was it all hand caught? Did they use poles or
nets? Any references in sources about any kind of fishing methods would be
helpful. Thank you.
