So how was oyster dredging done in the Firth? Here’s an image from J. G. Bertram’s The Harvest of the Sea. London, John Murray, 1873.
Dredging off Cockenzie, ca. 1873

Hi Bob,
my [artner Dave Cooper who rows for POrtobello skiff club suggested I contact you.
I am interested in running a workshop for the Scottish Storytelling Centre , as part of their courses and workshops programme. I would like the workshop to be on traditional music and stories of the sea, and incorporating an element around dredge songs.
I realise that you are in the U.S and wondered if you could reccomend anyone in Scotland , or not too far away who would be a good workshop leader for this? We would hope to run the event in JUne 2013 , possibly at the Fisheries Museum in Anstruther.
MAny thanks, I look forward to hearing fromyou.
All the best
