Summary: | The Gut has seen many changes over the generations with changing fishing methods and technology, as well as declining cod stocks in recent years. Today at the Gut, modern longliners moor in the Pond while a dormant fish processing plant sits next to the marginal wharf (the Wharf). Crab has replaced cod as the main species landed in Branch. Like in many parts of Newfoundland, the term fish refers to cod fish only. Other species are referred to by their specific names (crab, flounder, halibut, etc.) |
