The Hokenson Brothers Fishery, located on Little Sand Bay, Lake Superior, Bayfield County, Wisconsin, contains three major structures, a combined Fish House and Dock, and Ice House, and a Twine Shed. The brothers completed much of the complex between the years 1927 and 1931, but over the years added incrementally to them. This report will provide descriptions and illustrations of machines, tools, boats, motora, nets, ropes, supplies, and miscellaneous gear associated with the Hokenson Brothers Fishery. Suggestions are also made in this report for the location of the furnishings as well as a suggested floor plan.
