(en noun)- The baiter stands amidships, with the bait-box outside the rail: with a tin pint nailed to a long handle he begins throwing out bait, while every man stands to his berth.
- The hook is easily big enough to pass through a man's hand, and if it catches some part of the baiter' s body or clothing, he goes over the side with it.
- When baiting the hooks, the baiter also straightens any bent hooks, replaces worn or damaged ganglions or hooks, and untangles snarls in the line
