On the deck of the boat at the center of the composition, three men move cod with forked implements while a fourth holds a net from a dock. On the deck of the boat just behind the central boat, a figure works with baskets or buckets. There are two additional boats in the background and many seagulls overhead. At the bottom of the print is a samll still life that includes a codfish and implements related to codfishing.
