Add to ORKGwater-horse nTrapping crews usually put most of their fish in "salt bulk" (i.e., dry salted in big rectangular piles) and worked as a unit - men and women - to "wash out" the salted fish. This was put in "water horse" (the washed fish, back up, in rectangular piles) overnight till the water pressed out of it.W.
