Danny Koch | Long Island Traditions |
On June 3, 1987, Nancy Solomon interviewed Danny Koch as part of the Long Island Traditions Oral History Collection. Danny is a lifelong bayman who has been working the bay area for his entire life, just like his father, uncle, and grandfathers before him. Danny explains the process of setting traps and the varying number of killey he catches each day, depending on the tides and other factors. He emphasizes that the bay he fishes in is not a particularly productive fishing area, as indicated by the sounds of gulls. |
