Abalone hunting. Near mouth of Little River, Mendocino County, California. A minus 1.6 tide has exposed the reefs. One way of collecting: from a rowboat over the shallow, abalones are spotted from a glass-bottomed box, hooked with a long pole and jerked loose, then dipped up with a net. Ole Herilla in stern and his nephew at the oars. See also #7092. 6-29-42, E.F.
