A Pair of Fish Tugs

As I was waiting for the next ship, I saw these guys coming in.
 It is one of the fishing boats from Purdy's Fisheries which is in Sarnia.  It is right next to the casino and I sometimes get pictures of the fishery.
 I rarely get pictures of the boats in action though.  So it was kind of cool to get these.
 I believe this is a trap net boat.   It uses a special net that looks like a trap.  The fish go in but they don't leave.
 Purdy's Fishery itself was founded in 1900 and in 1940 it was relocated to it's current location.  It is still family owned.
 And then I caught another boat.
One more shot of that.
