  • The watercraft used by Icelandic cod fisherman Karol Karelsson and his colleagues for cod fishing near the small part of Sandgerdi on the western side of Reykjanes peninsula, Iceland.  (Karol Karelsson is featured in the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.)  Although their craft is small their large nets are mechanized. They monitor the casting then drink coffee and eat bread and fruit in the boat's galley until it's time to  haul in the bounty. They clean the fish in the belly of the ship, toss the guts, and then, after repeating this cycle many times for 8 hours, head for port.

The fishermen take a fish or two home each day, along with their pay.

  • Samuel Tucker, a lobsterman, with his typical day's worth of food in front of his boat at the Great Diamond Island dock in Maine.   (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of his day's worth of food in March was 3,800 kcals. He is 50 years of age; 6 feet, 1.5 inches tall; and 179 pounds. Sam works the lobster boat by himself, saving on labor, but in the summertime his son Scout comes along. ?He's a blast,? says Sam. ?I take him and some of his friends out; they're all just leaning over the rail in their life preservers looking to see what's in the trap when it comes up. They're pretty good at saying, 'He's got a keeper.'? Sam's state license restricts his traps to the bay, where he averages only one lobster for every two traps. After paying for fuel and bait, there's not much profit. He supplements his income with fish auction commissions, and his family's diet with venison culled from the island's deer population.  MODEL RELEASED.

  • João Agustinho Cardoso, fishes in a shallow lake near the Solimoes River in Manacapuru, Brazil. (Featured in the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of his day's worth of food for a typical day in the month of November was 5200 kcals. He is 69 years of age; 5 feet 2.5 inches tall and 140 pounds.  João's new house has no electricity and the toilet is simply the end of the big balsa wood logs the house is floating on. There is, however, running water, and plenty of it, in the half-mile-wide branch of the river they live on. Unfortunately the water is not potable, but it is teeming with fish, including piranha, which can make swimming during the early morning or evening worrisome. The curimata in the photo is just one of dozens of species that makes its way onto João's table. Absent from his daily diet are any alcoholic or caffeinated beverages, eschewed by his Seventh-day Adventist religion.  MODEL RELEASED.
