In this way the fish are brought to the surface also.DNE-cit JH 8/72Used I and SupNot used3Used I[see also bar you can draw [fish] by the head, but you must drag by the tail, draw a blank, draw the spile, draw/dry up, BLANK n, HAUL v, draw-bucket, drawing- ~, draw-latchChecked by Jordyn Hughes on Tue 26 Jul 201
