The song "Carlisle's Haul" by James McMurtry tells the story of a group of fishermen trying to make a living in a tough industry. Old Carlisle is in need of money and enlists the help of his fellow fishermen to haul in a seine, even though the commercial season is closed. They risk getting in trouble with the authorities, but they need to make a living. The lyrics describe the harsh realities of crabbing and fishing, and the frustration that comes with a system that seems stacked against them. The fishermen curse the weather and the government, but they hold onto their pride and trust in their kind. The song pays tribute to the experiences and wisdom of older fishermen, like Uncle Freddy and Carlisle, who have seen tough times and know the risks involved. At the end of the day, they come home with a modest catch, but it's enough to sustain them for a little while. The song reflects on the resilience and determination of people who make a living from the sea, even in the face of adversity.
