Abstract: | Fishing in Iceland started with mixed sea foods, including birds and eggs. In 13th and 14th Cents. exports of stockfish to Europe began. Seasonal catches followed fish, and special fishing huts were set up near fishing grounds, for crews of 7-13 men, who all rowed. Fishing trips lasted 6-12 hours. Worst disaster was of 165 drowned on 8 March 1700. Catches were seldom recorded. Fish were mainly dried, hung or cut open. Salting started in 18th Cent. using Newfoundland method, and exports went to Spain and Italy. Numbers engaged are unknown until recently. In 1900 seamen were c. 10% of nation. |
