Description: Newsreels in which Dutch subjects of a certain week are presented.

Description (more): Impression of the daily routine of herring fishing aboard the  "Volharding". SHOTS: Katwijk fishermen depart from the harbour of  IJmuiden to go herring fishing, waved goodbye by family and other  onlookers. As the fishermen arrive at the fishing grounds the nets are  prepared and, after the captain has said a prayer, thrown into the water  and drawn in. At night the net is drawn in and the catch is immediately  processed, in this case gutted, salted and pickled. Crans of herring,  the catch of the other ships, are taken aboard at open sea. When there's  enoug fish on board the ship sails home. The captain reports via the  radio to the home port how much was caught and when they expect to  arrive. In the harbour the barrels of herring are quickly loaded to  lorries who take the load to the auction.
