Preparing Bait
Description
Two women and a man are gathered outside a house in Newhaven in Edinburgh and are baiting fishing lines. The older woman is seated at the bottom of a flight of stone steps. The elderly man who has a beard and wears a hat, is leaning over as he works. A younger woman stands between them and is carrying two large creels on her back.
