NOAA Photo Library Image - r0006616

The fifth in a series of images that show restoration partners and volunteers collecting migrating anadromous blueback herring and alewife. The volunteers and scientists captured the fish and then moved them in trucks above the dams to their spawning grounds. This image clearly shows the fish thrashing in the net just prior to be moved.
