- About my films:
- The Fishermen of Plum Island is a one-hour documentary film exploring the culture of fishing on Plum Island, Massachusetts. The barrier island, just off the coast of Newburyport, is one of the finest fishing locales in the Northeast and draws an exceptionally diverse group of people searching for Striped Bass, Bluefish, Cod, Flounder, Mackerel, and others.
The film will follow the fishing season from May through November and present interviews, photographs, and personal stories told by the fishermen themselves. Some of the topics covered are:
- History of fishing on the island
- Recreational fishing over eighty years
- The culture and obsession of fishermen
- Change of fish stocks
Producing the film is Plum Island resident, avid fisherman, and professional designer, Jim Waldron. Anyone interested in telling their story, lending materials, or introducing their favorite fishermen should contact the film office at the address here.
