The first time i heard of a fishwheel was from an article in 
Alaskan culture title Cutting fish, by the hundreds from
Floyd Davidson. It got the curosity going what was a fishwheel
?

With the article was a drawing of a cutting table an the method
employed.



A fish cutting raft looks something like this,

    ==========||||============||||==========     raft
    ===+----+=||||============||||=+----+=== <== logs
    ===|    |=||||============||||=|    |===
       | T  | ||||            |||| | T  |
       | A  | ||||  wire mesh |||| | A  |
       | B  | ||||  fish pond |||| | B  |
       | L  | ||||            |||| | L  |
    ===| E  |=||||============||||=| E  |===    raft
    ===+----+=||||============||||=+----+=== <==logs
    ==========||||============||||==========
                \              /  Floyd Davidson
                 \            /
                   planks to 
                    walk on
