Abstract

Fifteen years ago my husband took over the fishing enterprise of his grandfather, which until then had been managed by his uncles, the brothers of his mother. His grandfather used to fish with a sailing boat in the largest bay of the Netherlands, which is also the delta of two rivers. In 1932, a dike was built to close the bay, and the water slowly changed into freshwater from its erstwhile salted state, and thereby became a lake.
