The Dispatch/Maryland Coast Dispatch
From 1896 to 1933, the pound fishing industry was second only to tourism in
Ocean City's economy. The fishing season ran from the end of March to mid-Novem-
ber. Women ran the hotels and boarding houses and their husbands fished.
The fish pounds were huge traps made of nets located half a mile to over a mile
offshore. They featured a funnel-shaped opening through which fish could enter but
have difficultly escaping from. The nets were pulled aboard the boats by hand. There
was no machinery in a pound boat to do the lifting. Fish were often dumped in the
boats under the feet of the fishermen and not sorted out until they returned to the
shore.
Boats were launched through the surf from the beach on wooden rollers and
retrieved with the help of a draft horse and block and tackle. There was no Inlet prior
to Aug. 23, 1933. It was hard and dangerous work.
